Modifications of configuration files shipped by upstream packages such as for example /etc/dnf/dnf.conf (package dnf, upstream: Fedora) by downstream distributions (Qubes) is always problematic. When upstream changes the file, it will conflict during upgrading.
I am trying to get rid of the update_conf code. [1] Therefore I posted two feature requests against dnf and PackageKit. [2] [3] What is not covered is not modifying /etc/pacman.conf. I was wondering, is that required at all? I am not a archlinux user but I have seen there also is /etc/pacman.d. Could a file /etc/pacman.d/qubes-proxy.conf also work? Could you test this please, Olivier?
