It seems that update had some negative side effects (could also have been the prior update): when sdwdate fails to complete for a workstation, I wait for it to complete on the gateway and after that (as I’ve done many times in the past) use the widget to “Restart sdwdate” on that workstation qube; this used to work in the past, but now I’m getting the following error:
In my policy files I see:
/etc/qubes/policy.d/80-whonix.policy:whonix.GatewayCommand +restart @tag:anon-gateway @tag:anon-vm allow autostart=no
/etc/qubes/policy.d/80-whonix.policy:whonix.GatewayCommand +stop @tag:anon-gateway @tag:anon-vm allow autostart=no
/etc/qubes/policy.d/80-whonix.policy:whonix.GatewayCommand +showlog @tag:anon-gateway @tag:anon-vm allow autostart=no
The tags on the gateway and workstation check out, so it seems that the argument restart is expected, but the actual argument given is _restart_.
In fact, changing that policy (first quoted line) to have a _restart_ argument instead of restart will get rid of the error message, but it still won’t restart sdwdate on the workstation.
