What have you done to the template? AFAIK nothing. There are many things you might have done , including deleting (by mistake) Qubes packages etc. well anything is possible but i am pretty sure i did not delete any packages lately, qubes or otherwise. This is why it's generally a good idea to keep a spare vanilla template hanging about, so you can rebuild as necessary. noted. Regardless, i thought in the past i was able to reinstall or install another but now that is giving me problems?

[qubes-users] Can't start apps from menu/app finder but can from dom0?
The subject says most of it. I can start apps from a dom0 terminal with qvm-run but cant figure why I cant do it via the xfce menu or app finder. I tried running using qvm-sync-appmenus appvm but that didnt help. Thoughts? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
