Steps
Given I have started Tails without network from a USB drive with a persistent partition enabled and logged in 17.032
And no SquashFS delta is installed 0.095
And Tails is fooled to think that version 6.0~testoverlayfs was initially installed 2.127
And Tails is fooled to think it is running version 6.0~testoverlayfs 1.405
And the file system changes introduced in version 6.2~testoverlayfs are not present 3.713
And the file system changes introduced in version 6.3~testoverlayfs are not present 1.603
When the network is plugged 0.157
And Tor is ready 28.444
Then I am proposed to install an incremental upgrade to version 6.2~testoverlayfs 12.043
And I can successfully install the incremental upgrade to version 6.2~testoverlayfs 19.983
Given I shutdown Tails and wait for the computer to power off 11.067

And the file system changes introduced in version 6.2~testoverlayfs are present 1.753
And only the 6.2~testoverlayfs SquashFS delta is installed 0.236
# Our IUK sets a release date that can make Tor bootstrapping impossible
Given Tails system time is magically synchronized 0.605
# 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
