Dear Qubes Community, Fedora 39 is currently [scheduled](https://fedorapeople.org/groups/schedule/f-39/f-39-key-tasks.html) to reach [end-of-life (EOL)](https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/End_of_life) on 2024-11-12 (approximately two months from now). Please upgrade all of your Fedora templates and standalones by that date. For more information, see [Upgrading to avoid EOL](https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/how-to-update/#upgrading-to-avoid-eol).
There are two ways to upgrade a template to a new Fedora release: - *Recommended*: [Install a fresh template to replace an existing one.](https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/templates/fedora/#installing) *This option may be simpler for less experienced users.* After you install the new template, redo all desired template modifications and [switch everything that was set to the old template to the new template](https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/templates/#switching). You may want to write down the modifications you make to your templates so that you remember what to redo on each fresh install. To see a log of package manager actions, open a terminal in the old Fedora template and use the `dnf history` command. - *Advanced*: [Perform an in-place upgrade of an existing Fedora template.](https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/templates/fedora/in-place-upgrade/) This option will preserve any modifications you've made to the template, *but it may be more complicated for less experienced users.* Please note that no user action is required regarding the OS version in dom0 (see our [note on dom0 and EOL](https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/supported-releases/#note-on-dom0-and-eol)).
