[Bug 1852022] Re: casper's postponing of snap refresh broken by switch to busybox date

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

This bug was fixed in the package casper - 1.432

---------------
casper (1.432) focal; urgency=medium

  * scripts/casper-helpers: pass --no-reread to sfdisk when creating the
    casper-rw partition to reduce the risk of self-races (which probably only
    happen in qemu-system-emulation i.e. in the autopkgtests).
