Ok thank you that explains it. I still cannot get the Fedora-32-minimal template installed however. I really regret accidentally interrupting the installation procedure with 'Ctrl + c'. For anybody that follows this thread from start to finish in the future I finally got this to work a couple of days ago. To briefly recap what started my troubles with the Fedora 32 templates, both regular and minimal... I first installed the f32 template and after it completed successfully I immediately proceeded to install the f32-minimal template as well. However, while the f32-minimal template installation was busy ( at this point it was already downloaded and checked and verified) I accidentally hit 'ctrl + c' and interrupted the process. After interrupting the process I just re-issued the command to install the f32-minimal template again sudo qubes-dom0-update qubes-template-fedora-32-minimal But it failed saying that it cannot delete the old database at '/var/lib/qubes/dom0-updates/home/user/.rpmdbold.2153'. I eventually found a cli option to the command above used to install a template used to reinstall a template and this worked out for me. Even though when it runs it still complains that it cannot delete the old database the template 're'installation completes and it doesn't stop after complaining that the old database cannot be deleted. sudo qubes-dom0-update --action=reinstall qubes-template-fedora-32 sudo qubes-dom0-update --action=reinstall qubes-template-fedora-32-minimal -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

[qubes-users] Template Installation Problem
While I was busy installing the Fedora-32-minimal template yesterday after the rpm was downloaded, checked and verified, I was asked if the installation must proceed to which I answered 'y'. Is this ok [y/N]: y Downloading Packages: Running transaction check Transaction check succeeded. Running transaction test Transaction test succeeded.

That interrupted the minimal template installation '^' and the minimal template never got installed. When I issue the command again it is complaining that it cannot delete an old database.
