>From Qubes-OS 4.1.0 I updated dom0 today, and see the 5.15 kernel at reboot, and xen-4.14.5-6 etc. However, the 'release' info in the file /etc/qubes-release and from the 'About' tab in Qubes Manager still says R4.1 -- is this any indication that my update did not fully bring the system to R4.1.1 and there are additional steps needed? Thank You.
