When I run in Q4rc(4,5) the update command

sudo qubes-dom0-update --enablerepo=qubes-dom0-current-testing

I get the message

/usr/lib/qubes/qubes-rpc-multiplexer: 14:
/etc/profile.d/20_power_savings_disable_in_vms.sh: shopt: not found

followed by "no new updates available". Do you experience the same? May
I ignore this? Bernhard

I experience the same; not sure what it's about but doesn't seem too
concerning as long as updates are still getting through.

quick google search shows it might have something to do with disabling screen locker and power savings for inside vms. maybe its related to whonix since its here on github. https://github.com/Whonix/power-savings-disable-in-vms/blob/master/etc/profile.d/20_power_savings_disable_in_vms.sh

I guess unless your vms are blacking out I wouldn't worry about it, probably something that was being tested.

I don't use 4.0 but if noone else gets this maybe you changed something yourselves manually in your profile or bash profile?
