Issues updating qubes (Qubes OS 4.2.1 (R4.2))

[Ulrich Windl]

Hi!

When trying to update qubes today, I had two unexpected issues so far:

1) Whonix Worksattion 17 caused this syslog message:

dom0 qubesd[5091]: vm.whonix-workstation-17: Invalid 'os-eol' value '',
expected YYYY-MM-DD

Otherwise the update worked fine.

2) Updating Debian-12 caused thise message:

Updating debian-12
Refreshing package info
Refreshing packages.
Fail to refresh InRelease: https://deb.debian.org/debian bookworm
InRelease from https://deb.debian.org/debian/dists/bookworm/InRelease

The issue is that the update process just seems to hand indefinitely,
even after having pressed "Cancel updates".


Also the messages shown in the updater are not "refreshed realtime", so
maybe some messages are pending (buffered), but cannot be seen.

I don't know whether that can be fixed easily, but it would be nice to
see messages as they are created.


Kind regards,

Ulrich
