Hi,

I accidentally forgot to change one appvm that still references the fedora-23, before running the "dnf remove qubes-template-fedora-23" which have removed the rpm.
After that I've erase all files under /var/lib/qubes/vm-templates/fedora-23 and also removed the corresponding entry from the /var/lib/qubes/qubes.xml however on the xfce menu the fedora-23 template still shows.
Can anyone tell me how to permanently delete the fedora-23 template by hand since the rpm was removed?

Thank you

The below command will remove it from the xfce menu.

sudo rm ~/.local/share/applications/fedora-23-*

Thank you.
Practically all entries were removed from the xfce menu, with the exception of one "Template: fedora-23" -> Add more shortcuts"
How can I remove any trace of the fedora-23 template by hand? Does anyone knows?

Forgot to mention that the dom0 still references updates from "Fedora 23 - x86_64" whilst running "qubes-dom0-update" and not from fedora 24.

Is there a way that this can be changed?

In Qubes 3.2, dom0 is based on Fedora 23, not Fedora 24:

Thanks.

Unfortunately that does not remove the "Template: fedora-23" -> Add more shortcuts" from the xfce menu.
Is simply remains there.

Did Xv3g4n X's suggestion work?

If so, we can add it to the page.

Unfortunately no. Hi suggestion was the same as proposed on the qubes page - https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/remove-vm-manually/

It only removes all the icons on the xfce menu with the exception of the one I just mentioned "Template: fedora-23" -> Add more shortcuts"

Sorry, didn't realize it was already on the page.

Ok, how about this?

Look in /etc/xdg/menus.
You will want to remove the file fedora-23-vm.menu, which is probably in
applications-merged.

Try that

I've just deleted the file, but the "Template: fedora-23" -> Add more shortcuts" is still there ... :(

What about in .config/menus?
Do you have a user-fedora-23-vm entry there in applications-merged?
