Installing Fedora 26 template VM in Qubes 3.2

[Eivind K. Dovik]

Hi,

According to https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/supported-versions/#templatevms,
Qubes 3.2 supports Fedora 26. I have successfully installed the Debian 9
template in the past, however when trying to install the Fedora 26
template using sudo qubes-dom0-update qubes-template-fedora-26 I get the
following error:

[MIRROR] qubes-template-fedora-26-4.0.0-201711170141.noarch.rpm: Curl
error (23): Failed writing received data to disk/application for

I get similar errors when I try qubes-template-fedora-24 and
qubes-template-fedora-25.

Any suggestions?


Best,

Restart your UpdateVM (or just reboot) if you haven't already. Is your
disk full?

[Eivind K. Dovik]

I tried restarting/rebooting, and there is plenty of available disk space.
I did, however, find a somewhat cumbersome solution:

Upgrade fedora-23 to fedora-24, upgrade fedora-24 to fedora-25, and
finally upgrade fedora-25 to fedora-26. I followed the steps outlined
under "Upgrading", https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/templates/fedora/.

How about free space inside your UpdateVM? You might try to clean your
package cache.
