I see this 'failovermethod=priority' in the file 'yum.repos.d'.

So I tried the fresh sys-firewall and tried to change UpdateVM on sys-net
and nothing changed :(



Then you simply have not deleted the entry from every file in dom0.

In any case it's a warning and harmless. Also a fix is in the pipeline.
It's always good practive to check that your problem isnt already covered
- it **has** been covered here the Forum, and also at github in the
issue tracker - #6581, and comes up with a trivial search.


After reading this, I tried to find the issue, starting at the Qubes OS main
page. Unfortunately you'll have to follow several links starting from the
"Team" link until you get there.


I wouldn't start from there.

ddg "qubes issues failovermethod" takes me straight to it, as does
"failovermethod=priority error".

"failovermethod=priority" takes you directly to the Red Hat bugzilla
where the issue is discussed and resolved.




I wonder:
* Is it possible to add some more direct links for "Search known issues"?
* Maybe also add shortcuts for "Issues recently reported", "Issues recently
fixed", and maybe "'popular' issues" (like those being opened many times;
unsure if that's possible)



Where do you think these links would be helpful?


Close to the home page; maybe in the top navigation bar under "Support" 
(does not exist yet, but could target at 
https://www.qubes-os.org/support/), even though people might be afraid 
of the traffic it may create ;-)
