I think you misread the output I posted, it was:

[user@dom0 ~]$ rpm -qa |grep kernel
qubes-core-dom0-linux-kernel-install-3.2.12-1.fc23.x86_64
kernel-4.4.14-11.pvops.qubes.x86_64
kernel-4.4.38-11.pvops.qubes.x86_64
kernel-4.8.12-12.pvops.qubes.x86_64
kernel-qubes-vm-4.4.14-11.pvops.qubes.x86_64
kernel-qubes-vm-4.4.38-11.pvops.qubes.x86_64

and clearly lacks kernel-qubes-vm 4.8.12 :)

this didnt do the trick, but it made me look again on the filesystem as
qubes-dom0-update also said it was cached… so this time I went for
"sudo find / |grep kernel-qubes-vm" which found it in 
/var/lib/qubes/updates/rpm/ so I just installed it with "rpm -i $file"
which worked nicely.

However, it didnt show me the conflict dnf showed me while using
qubes-dom0-update and I still would like to know what conflict that was…!

this doesnt work anymore:

ERROR: yum version installed in VM sys-firewall does not support --downloadonly 
option
ERROR: only 'install' and 'upgrade' actions support (reinstall not)

So thanks, your reply made me dig deeper and find a manual workaround,
but I still would be more happy if qubes-dom0-update would work to install
kernel-qubes-vm 4.8.12-12 in a way that one can document in qubes-doc…

Now hoping that this will indeed make my system more stable too. I'll see.
