Fedora-26 template unable to update

[edal...@riseup.net]

I've been struggling to update my Fedora-26 template for a while. So far none of the various bug-reports I've found on the issue seem to help.

I've checked that all URL's in /etc/yum.repos.d/qubes-r4.repo use https as suggested.

 

CONTENT OF /etc/yum.repos.d/qubes-r4.repo (disabled repos not shown):

name = Qubes OS Repository for VM (updates)
baseurl = https://yum.qubes-os.org/r4.0/current/vm/fc$releasever
#baseurl = http://yum.sik5nlgfc5qylnnsr57qrbm64zbdx6t4lreyhpon3ychmxmiem7tioad.onion/r4.0/current/vm/fc$releasever
gpgkey = file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-qubes-4-primary
skip_if_unavailable=False
gpgcheck = 1
enabled=1



WHEN UPDATING, it doesn't look like DNF gets any fresh data:

I've tried cleaning and refreshing:

53 files removed

Any suggestions on this? I really dislike to sit on a outdated system :/

Fedora 26 reached end-of-life last year. You need to install Fedora 28
at least, or Fedora 29.
