In R4, when fetching updates for Dom0 with "sudo qubes-dom0-update --clean --verbose" I get this error message repeated 6 times:

I then get the following:

It seems there are two python packages available, but for some reason they are downloaded but not installed or re-installed.

Questions:
1. Is the error message regarding "failovermethod" relevant / something to worry about? 2. Is anyone else experiencing the issue with these two python packages (python3-blivet and python3-kickstart)?

Thanks

P.S: Qubes team - fantastic work with the OS, thanks for your awesome contribution to secure computing!

I don't know about the failover message. But using
'--action=reinstall' is probably necessary here. Or if the version
numbers for the downloads are newer than what is already installed
then you may need to use '--action=upgrade'.

Thanks Chris. Using "--action=reinstall" manually for each package worked, and it reinstalled both packages of the same version numbers. Any ideas what could cause DNF to suggest reinstalling the same packages?

Also, does anyone also get the "failovermethod" messages when updating dom0?
"Unknown configuration value: failovermethod=priority in /var/lib/qubes/dom0-updates/etc/yum.repos.d/fedora.repo; Configuration: OptionBinding with id "failovermethod" does not exist"
