Hey, I am running qubes 4.0 and When I try to update Dom0 in the Terminal with "sudo qubes-dom0-update" I get this error: Using sys-whonix as UpdateVM to download updates for Dom0; this may take some time... Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: qubes-dom0-current. Please verify its path and try again.

I have Whonix-gw-14 and whonix-ws-14 installed and fully updated. I also have debian-9 updates working with no errors.

I have Fedora-28 installed also but when I try and update that I get this Error: Failed to synchronize cashe for repo 'qubes-vm-r4.0-current'

I am relatively new to qubes so I am learning as I go. I have did some research on these issues and I havnt found a solution to my exact issue yet. I am hoping I dont have to reinstall Qubes unless I have too.

I was trying to update my onion addresses from V2 to V3 when I came across this Issue using this guide: https://www.whonix.org/wiki/Onionizing_Repositories.

It sounded like they were going to migrate the Qubes update repo to a
new server. Just wait and try again in a few hours or tomorrow.

After running these commands in https://www.whonix.org/wiki/Onionizing_Repositories this is what my File looks like in Dom0 (qubes-dom0.repo):

[qubes-dom0-current]
name = Qubes Dom0 Repository (Updates)
#baseurl = https://yum.sik5nlgfc5qylnnsr57qrbm64zbdx6t4lreyhpon3ychmxmiem7tioad.onion/r$releasever/current/dom0/fc25
metalink = https://yum.sik5nlgfc5qylnnsr57qrbm64zbdx6t4lreyhpon3ychmxmiem7tioad.onion/r$releasever/current/dom0/fc25/repodata/repomd.xml.metalink
enabled = 1
metadata_expire = 7d
gpgcheck = 1
gpgkey = file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-qubes-$releasever-primary

This is what qubes-r4.repo looks like in fedora 28 templateVM:

[qubes-vm-r4.0-current]
name = Qubes OS Repository for VM (updates)
baseurl = https://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

This is what my qubes-templates.repo looks like in Dom0:

[qubes-templates-itl]
name = Qubes Templates Repository
#baseurl = https://yum.sik5nlgfc5qylnnsr57qrbm64zbdx6t4lreyhpon3ychmxmiem7tioad.onion/r$releasever/templates-itl
metalink = https://yum.sik5nlgfc5qylnnsr57qrbm64zbdx6t4lreyhpon3ychmxmiem7tioad.onion/r$releasever/templates-itl/repodata/repomd.xml.metalink
