Comment (by gk):

 That's what I get with a test bundle
 {{{
 AUS:SVC Downloader:onStopRequest - status: 0, current fail: 0, max fail:
 10, retryTimeout: 2000
 AUS:SVC Downloader:_verifyDownload called
 AUS:SVC Downloader:_verifyDownload downloaded size == expected size.
 AUS:SVC Downloader:_verifyDownload hashes match.
 AUS:SVC Downloader:onStopRequest - setting state to: pending
 AUS:SVC Downloader:onStopRequest - attempting to stage update:
 Tor-Browser 6.5a4
 AUS:SVC readStatusFile - status: failed: 6, path:

 AUS:SVC handleFallbackToCompleteUpdate - install of partial patch
 failed, downloading complete patch
 }}}
 IIRC the complete update showed the same error message.
