Fedora 33 TemplateVMs available
New Fedora 33 TemplateVMs are now available for both Qubes 4.0 and 4.1.
Important: If you wish to use the Qubes Update widget to update a Fedora 33 template, you must first switch the default-mgmt-dvm
qube to a Fedora 33 template. (Alternatively, you can create a separate management DisposableVM Template based on a Fedora 33 template for the purpose of updating Fedora 33 templates.) This does not affect updating internally using dnf
.
Note: Fedora 33 has switched the default DNS resolver to systemd-resolved. If resolving local domains on your LAN does not work as expected even when specifying the full name, you may wish to disable systemd-resolved and enable NetworkManager in the TemplateVM instead.
Instructions are available for upgrading Fedora TemplateVMs. We also provide fresh Fedora 33 TemplateVM packages through the official Qubes repositories, which you can get with the following commands (in dom0).
Standard Fedora 33 TemplateVM:
$ sudo qubes-dom0-update qubes-template-fedora-33
Minimal Fedora 33 TemplateVM:
$ sudo qubes-dom0-update qubes-template-fedora-33-minimal
After installing or upgrading a TemplateVM, please remember to update (see important note above) and switch all qubes that were using the old template to use the new one.
For more information about Fedora 33, please see the Fedora 33 Release Notes and the Fedora 33 Announcement.
