Yes, the exact same response.
It starts up as normal, then gives the message stating that it is already
running.

What is the output when you attempt the install?


Well, I know that I am not connected to anything right now, since there is
no wifi near me that I have connected to before.
I tried beaming from my phone, and it didn't say that anything was
connected.
The output when I run:
sudo qubes-dom0-update qubes-gui-dom0

Is:
Using sys-firewall as UpdateVM to download updates for Dom0; this may take
some time...
Failed to synchronize cache for repo 'updates', disabling.
Failed to synchronize cache for repo 'fedora', disabling.
Failed to synchronize cache for repo 'qubes-dom0-current', disabling.
Failed to synchronize cache for repo 'qubes-templates-itl', disabling.
No match for argument: qubes-gui-dom0
Error: Unable to find a match

It takes a while for it to bail out.
