Hello community, Now that I have resolved (?) my problem concerning copying text from xterm sessions, I'm running into the next strange behavior :-(
The short version, is a simple question: *Are you able to create a clone from 'fedora-31-minimal' and extend it with packages?* The longer version contains some details on what I experienced today on my Qubes OS system: The obvious next step for me was to create a clone of 'fedora-31-minimal' and extend it with additional packages. Since I do all my documentation in reST & transforming it into HTML as output format, I'll require a web browser in most of my VMs. Therefore I wanted to have 'Firefox' available - but - this was not possible :-( Here's the log of what I did (including logs at the end): ### Create a new template based on 'Fedora-31-Minimal' with Firefox added. - Not OK. - See "Log-001" * Unable to `sudo dnf install firefox` ... * Restart the Qube OS system ... ### 2020-05-30 ~ 14:05 (UTC) * Start 'fedora-31-minimal-firefox' & try to `sudo dnf install firefox` - Again not OK. * Delete the clone 'fedora-31-minimal'. ### 2020-05-30 ~ 14:15 (UTC) Create a new template clone based on 'Fedora-31-Minimal' - OK. * Start & update 'fedora-31-minimal-firefox' * Try to `sudo dnf install firefox` - Again not OK ... ### 2020-05-30 ~ 14:30 (UTC) Create a new template clone based on 'Fedora-31' - OK. * Start & update 'fedora-31-java' * Try to `sudo dnf install java-11` - OK. - See "Log-002". ### <Log-001> [user@fedora-31-minimal-firefox ~]$ pwd /home/user [user@fedora-31-minimal-firefox ~]$ ls -al total 44 drwx------ 3 user user 4096 May 30 16:43 . drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 May 27 04:17 .. -rw-rw-r-- 1 user user 34 May 30 16:43 .Xresources -rw------- 1 user user 284 May 30 16:44 .bash_history -rw-r--r-- 1 user user 18 Dec 6 13:06 .bash_logout -rw-r--r-- 1 user user 141 Dec 6 13:06 .bash_profile -rw-r--r-- 1 user user 376 Dec 6 13:06 .bashrc drwxr-xr-x 3 user user 4096 May 27 04:17 .local -rw-rw-r-- 1 user user 4322 May 30 16:44 .xsession-errors -rw------- 1 user user 60 May 30 14:32 XTerm2020-05-30.14:32:53 [user@fedora-31-minimal-firefox ~]$ sudo dnf install firefox We trust you have received the usual lecture from the local System Administrator. It usually boils down to these three things: #1) Respect the privacy of others. #2) Think before you type. #3) With great power comes great responsibility. [sudo] password for user: Sorry, try again.

To confirm that this is not a simple issue on my side I created a clone of 'fedora-31' with Java 11 added to the default. That's working w/o an issue! <Log-002> [user@fedora-31-java ~]$ sudo dnf install java-11 Last metadata expiration check: 0:21:11 ago on Sat May 30 14:18:32 2020.

The only guess I have at the moment is that the setup of the xterm (only) environment is not complete/ consistent. For what it's worth, I'm doing all of this from a system with a german keyboard ...
