Steps
Given I have started Tails without network from a USB drive with a persistent partition enabled and logged in 8.464
And no SquashFS delta is installed 0.086
And Tails is fooled to think that version 6.0~testoverlayfs was initially installed 0.204
And Tails is fooled to think it is running version 6.0~testoverlayfs 0.028
And the file system changes introduced in version 6.2~testoverlayfs are not present 0.235
And the file system changes introduced in version 6.3~testoverlayfs are not present 0.323
When the network is plugged 0.046
And Tor is ready 13.222
Then I am proposed to install an incremental upgrade to version 6.2~testoverlayfs 0.293
And I can successfully install the incremental upgrade to version 6.2~testoverlayfs 4.293
Given I shutdown Tails and wait for the computer to power off 6.759
When I start Tails from USB drive "__internal" with network unplugged and I login with persistence enabled 1:5.304
Then Tails is running version 6.2~testoverlayfs 0.007
And all tps features are active 7.880
And the file system changes introduced in version 6.2~testoverlayfs are present 0.235
And only the 6.2~testoverlayfs SquashFS delta is installed 0.053
# Our IUK sets a release date that can make Tor bootstrapping impossible
Given Tails system time is magically synchronized 0.096
# We'll really install Tails_amd64_6.0~testoverlayfs_to_6.3~testoverlayfs.iuk
# but we need some way to force upgrading a second time in a row
# even if only the initially installed version is considered
And Tails is fooled to think that version 6.1~testoverlayfs was initially installed 0.237
When the network is plugged 0.069
And Tor is ready 9.875
Then I am proposed to install an incremental upgrade to version 6.3~testoverlayfs 1.710
And I can successfully install the incremental upgrade to version 6.3~testoverlayfs 3.725
Given I shutdown Tails and wait for the computer to power off 2.552
When I start Tails from USB drive "__internal" with network unplugged and I login with persistence enabled 39.442

And only the 6.3~testoverlayfs SquashFS delta is installed 0.000
# Regression test for #17425 (i.e. the Upgrader would propose
