Open a terminal in the Debian template, and type these commands: sudo systemctl stop apt-daily.timer sudo systemctl disable apt-daily.timer sudo systemctl stop apt-daily.service sudo systemctl disable apt-daily.service 'Systemctl disable' will stop the service from starting on boot. To make sure a service will never start, use 'systemctl mask ..', so you could equally try that command. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
