Steps
Given I have started Tails without network from a USB drive with a persistent partition enabled and logged in 24.320
And no SquashFS delta is installed 3.233
And Tails is fooled to think that version 6.0~testoverlayfs was initially installed 4.087
And Tails is fooled to think it is running version 6.0~testoverlayfs 0.635
And the file system changes introduced in version 6.2~testoverlayfs are not present 0.968
And the file system changes introduced in version 6.3~testoverlayfs are not present 1.328
When the network is plugged 0.142
And Tor is ready 17.012

# Our IUK sets a release date that can make Tor bootstrapping impossible
Given Tails system time is magically synchronized 0.000
# 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

And Tails is fooled to think that version 6.1~testoverlayfs was initially installed 0.000
