Scenario The global Flatpak overrides don't create problems to the pseudo-Flatpaks
Before features/support/hooks.rb:274 0.000
Before features/support/hooks.rb:281 0.003
Steps
Given I have started Tails with the Flatpak feature from a USB drive with a persistent partition enabled and logged in and the network is connected 11.653
Then no pseudo-flatpak is impacted by global overrides 0.876
org.boum.tails.TorBrowser's 
org.boum.tails.TorBrowser's permissions are not honored due to our global overrides.
