dom0 updates not visible?

[qubes...@riseup.net]

Hi,

I fear I have an issue with dom0 updates.

I noticed that there is a newer release
for
qubes-mgmt-salt-dom0-virtual-machines (4.0.16)

but I still have:

qubes-mgmt-salt-dom0-virtual-machines-4.0.15-1.fc25.noarch

An update in dom0 doesn't install the update:

sudo qubes-dom0-update

Using sys-firewall as UpdateVM to download updates for Dom0; this may take some time...

Qubes OS Repository for Dom0


I don't use the testing/unstable dom0 repos, just current.


I'm using sys-firewall (fedora-30) as update VM.

I also tried
sudo dnf clean all

using Qubes R4.0

Do you have recommendations on how to debug this?
thanks!

This is, unfortunately, a known issue.
You can manually install the "SKIPPED" packages by using dnf install.
Your "dnf clean all" has scuppered that.
Just try the update again, and if the same packages are downloaded, just
install them yourself.

but the relevant package qubes-mgmt-salt-dom0-virtual-machines
is not even listed as skipped.

I'm also interested in that. Last week I discovered that I'm using the kernel 4.14.119 whereas 4.19 is already used by others according to this mailing list.
How to find the skipped packages and how to update qubes to the _real_ latest version?

Just to verify:

Do others have v4.0.16 installed for the package
qubes-mgmt-salt-dom0-virtual-machines
on your R4.0 systems without testing repos enabled?

No, doesn't look like it is in stable/current yet.

The *latest* version is in testing - you can check by using
--action=search to see what's available, and the --enable-repo option to
check what's in testing.
But, of course, that's testing - if you're concerned about stability,
stick to current. Not so good for QA, but may be better for you.
