dom0 update broken after upgrade to 4.1

[badgateway]

Hello list,

after upgrading from 4.0.4 to 4.1 my dom0 update seems broken:

$ sudo qubesctl update.qubes-dom0
[ERROR   ] Failed to import module localemod, this is due most likely to
a syntax error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/salt/loader.py", line 1685, in

    mod = spec.loader.load_module()

    @decorators.which('locale-gen')
AttributeError: module 'salt.utils.decorators' has no attribute 'which'
'update.qubes-dom0' is not available.
DOM0 configuration failed, not continuing

I also found
https://forum.qubes-os.org/t/error-failed-to-import-module-localemod/7938
which seems to be the exact same error.


On another note: I tried to install the new gentoo template by issuing
`sudo qubes-dom0-update --enablerepo=qubes-templates-community
qubes-template-gentoo`,
which results in `qvm-template: error: template 'gentoo' not found.`
Could this be related, maybe because dom0 repo cache cannot be updated
because of the error mentioned above?


Kind regards

no solution I've seen yet. (I'm also affected)
