Hi

Does the Fedora Minimal Template still exist? I am unable to install it as per https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/templates/fedora-minimal/

Cheers
Adam

Yes, AFAIK it should still be available. (I'm currently using it.)

You issued this command in dom0, correct?

$ sudo qubes-dom0-update qubes-template-fedora-23-minimal

What was the output?

Edit: Include mailing list.

Hi Andrew

Thank you for all the hard work you put into the project, you seem to have the patients of a saint, sometimes dealing with people is the hardest part!

yes, that is the command i issued.

I get an error "Could not resolve host: mirror.switch.ch" after the error i get the following

Trying other mirror.
No Match for argument qubes-template-fedora-23-minimal
Nothing to download

Cheers
Adam

Are you on R3.1 or R3.2-rc1? It looks like there's no fedora-minimal template
available yet for R3.2-rc1:

http://yum.qubes-os.org/r3.2/templates-itl/rpm/

But it's still available for R3.1:

http://yum.qubes-os.org/r3.1/templates-itl/rpm/

I am using R3.2-rc1, that explains why it there is no match.

is there instructions on building the minimal template? something similar to https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/templates/archlinux/?

I might be able to work something out anyways, using that document as a loose guide.

Also take a look at the pages under the Building section:

https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/#building

For some reason, we have a page on building non-Fedora templates:

https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/building-non-fedora-template/

But no page about building Fedora templates.

Marek, is that because there's already some easy, obvious way to build Fedora
templates?

Yes, supported templates have configuration maintained here:
https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-template-configs

There is also readme explaining how to use it.

Anyway, I'll build minimal template shortly, looks like an oversight.

Ok, thanks. I've added that link to the documentation.
