Thanks.
With -p I see the error 'no module named qubes' and suddenly it's clear
this is all my fault and I know what I did wrong.
My first step in modifying the fedora template was to link
/usr/bin/python to
python3 rather than python2.
Oops. I didn't think about how that'd affect qubes at all. Perhaps
#!/usr/bin/python2 would make more sense? But no matter.
Changed it back so python > python2. It's all working again. I think I
didn't even need to backup the .desktop files I deleted because
qvm-sync-appmenus does whatever it has to do.
