Like the title says, Debian based UpdateVM does not support --action=list
or reinstall. Error message says:
ERROR: yum version installed in VM host does not suppport --downloadonly
option
ERROR: only 'install' and 'upgrade' actions supported (list not)
It's easy enough to come up with a work-around for reinstall, but what
would be the work-around for the following?
sudo qubes-dom0-update --enablerepo=qubes-dom0-unstable --action=list
kernel-qubes-vm
Apologies if this is answered somewhere else; could not locate it.
Ideally the command/work-around would be available from dom0 without the
user having to figure out what UpdateVM he happens to be using.
Suggestions?
Debian doesn't have the required toolset for full rpm support, so I
think the only answer is for the user to keep a Fedora-based VM on hand
if they wish to do anything more with packages in dom0 than simple updates.
