I am struggling with this same issue...I find that after a restart I can do the update but wanted to do this right. I checked the link posted above:
"User-initiated updates/upgrades may not run when a templateVM first starts. This is due to a new Debian config setting that attempts to update automatically; it can be disabled with systemctl disable apt-daily.timer" But as a rookie I am unsure of the specific terminal steps in my template. Any chance I can ask the Qubes community for help on the specific terminal commands to get this accomplished? I would truly appreciate the help...thank you and thank you Qubes! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
