Tor Browser in Whonix DispVM outdated

Qubes-Whonix
1

Hello,

I am using Qubes OS along with Whonix.

I installed the Template whonix-workstation-17 and updated it.

When I start the AppVM anon-whonix (Template: whonix-workstation-17) is has the current Tor Browser version.

When I start the DispVM (dispXXX) by clicking on the DVM Template whonix-workstation-17-dvm it has an outdated Tor Browser version. The DVM Template whonix-workstation-17-dvm is based on the Template whonix-workstation-17.

Why does this occur and how to fix this?

Thank you. I read trough the documentation.

Currently I have no Whonix Disposable Template and want to create one. I followed the instructions
Create a Whonix Default Disposable Template based on Whonix-Workstation.

But after using sudo qubesctl state.sls qvm.whonix-ws-dvm I get the following error:
local: Data failed to compile: No matching sls found for 'qvm.whonix-ws-dvm' in env 'base' DOM0 configuration failed, not continuing

What could be the reason and how to fix this?

Thank you. There was a mistake on this page how to create Whonix Disposable Template and I submitted changes:

Right: sudo qubesctl state.sls qvm.whonix-workstation-dvm

Wrong: qubesctl state.sls qvm.whonix-ws-dvm

I updated my Template: whonix-workstation-17 to the latest Tor Browser via Tor Browser Downloader by Whonix.

Using Tor Browser in Qubes-Whonix

And created a new Whonix Disposable VM Template as stated above.

Now the Whonix DispVMs dispXXXX have the latest Tor Browser version.
