Been wondering since I started Qubes earlier this year and wanted a Centos7 in place of f29 some VMs. Found the community template date stamped in Nov 2018 and installed OK. Then ran "yum update" in the template and it pulled down more than 900 packages with a download the same size as the template RPM. Must have been based on a quite old release. After this I could no longer start a terminal in the template, so something got zapped. Deleted and re-installed template, thinking I had to use the Qubes Updater that was showing updates available for centos-7 and get: Updating centos-7
centos-7:

What is the difference between using the Qubes update and just running yum/dnf in the template?
Currently my F29 template is getting quite fat and Qubes updates stopped working (ran through the update
then halting the f29 template qube never finished and had to be killed).
"dnf update" required in the template to clear the updates available indicator in Qubes.
Thanks, Eric
