Dear Qubes Community, Fedora 33 was released today [1], 2020-10-27. According to the Fedora Release Life Cycle [2], this means that Fedora 31 is scheduled to reach EOL (end-of-life [3]) in approximately four weeks, around 2020-11-24 [4].
We strongly recommend that all Qubes users upgrade their Fedora 31 TemplateVMs and StandaloneVMs to Fedora 32 or higher before Fedora 31 reaches EOL. We provide step-by-step upgrade instructions for upgrading Fedora TemplateVMs [5]. For a complete list of TemplateVM versions supported for your specific version of Qubes, see Supported TemplateVM Versions [6]. We also provide a fresh Fedora 32 TemplateVM package through the official Qubes repositories, which you can install in dom0 by following the standard installation instructions [7]. After upgrading your TemplateVMs, please remember to switch all qubes that were using the old template to use the new one [8]. Please note that no user action is required regarding the OS version in dom0. For details, please see our note on dom0 and EOL [9].
