Test suite description

Reproducible

Fails since (at least) Build 202508081047 (current job)

Expected result

Last good: 4.3.202507082200 (or more recent)

Further details

Always latest result in this scenario: latest

I observed it a few times in openQA already, mostly on initial setup. I can't exclude it happening also on normal system boot.

QubesOS/qubes-core-admin#630 was about similar issue, maybe it wasn't a full fix?
