Let’s test the following recently build Whonix TemplateVM packages point release.
-
update/upgrade within the template doesnt show any new packages
-
using this command:
sudo qubes-dom0-update --enablerepo=qubes-templates-community --action=upgrade qubes-template-whonix-gw-14
it doesnt show any new version to download:
[user@dom0 ~]$ dnf list | grep whonix
qubes-core-admin-addon-whonix.noarch 4.0.2-1.fc25 @qubes-dom0-cached
qubes-template-whonix-gw-14.noarch 4.0.1-201811040215 @qubes-dom0-cached
qubes-template-whonix-ws-14.noarch 4.0.1-201811040215 @qubes-dom0-cached
[user@dom0 ~]$ sudo qubes-dom0-update --enablerepo=qubes-templates-community --action=upgrade qubes-template-whonix-ws-14

Qubes issue.
Could you please try creating a new dom0-update VM based on fedora-28 template? As per:
Reinstall Qubes-Whonix ™ Templates: Stable Version
Thx to @Lilias to for his notice of the missing part in the command mentioned here:
The command should be changed from:
sudo qubes-dom0-update --enablerepo=qubes-templates-community --action=upgrade <qubes-template-package>
it should be
sudo qubes-dom0-update --enablerepo=qubes-templates-community-testing --action=upgrade <qubes-template-package>
from qubes-templates-community
to qubes-templates-community-testing
shall it be corrected in the wiki?
GPA installed by default , but Kgpg there as well.
TNT BOM BOM:
shall it be corrected in the wiki?
Yes, but not as simple as replacing the one with the other since testing
must not be the default.
Good thing now switching between keyboards layouts back to work again.
Great Job!!
