That does speak to a few other possible options. system-image-cli (although not really the D-Bus API) supports a --filter flag that can be set to full or delta, to force one or the other choices in candidate path upgrades. You could force a full upgrade which was less than the highest, where the subsequent deltas would contain only libreoffice. That might make the individual downloads fit within the partition size, at the cost of a two-step upgrade. It's also possible to flip the bootme flag on the server. This would affect how the upgrades are downloaded and installed. A candidate upgrade path through a bootme flag will still be calculated, but the upgrade will stop at the image with the bootme, apply that, and then a subsequent upgrade could apply the libreoffice delta. Again, the cost is a two-step upgrade through a reboot.
