I imagine qvm-run will require some qubes package to be installed in
the vm, and fedora-minimal doesn't have it.

The Qubes documentation website contains some details on what is
needed in a minimal template for some purposes.

Thanks. Does it count that i can run the minimal template that sys-usb 
is based on as root? that is something like:


qvm-run -u root fedora-30-minimal xterm

and it starts right up? or is that different?



Ah, that's "interesting".  I guess you have the right packages
installed.  It might be a Qubes policy thing, but I have never tried
looking into those.

Sorry, I can't help much now.

Mike.
