There's an open issue relating to making build more fault tolerant, but since I never see that problem, it's not a priority. (I use apt-cacher-ng as a caching proxy which might help. Certainly does on the template updating.) On your second point did you read https://qubes.3isec.org ? I've been running those for about two years. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
