Probably something gone wrong with removing the template. Templates
which are still installed are excluded from being installed again.
Verify this with:

rpm -q qubes-template-fedora-29-minimial

If the template package is still there, but actual template is gone (not
listed by qvm-ls tool), you can forcibly remove the package with:

sudo rpm -e --noscripts qubes-template-fedora-29-minimial

[qubes-devel] Template disappeared: qubes-template-fedora-29-minimial

[Elias Mårtenson]

I installed qubes-template-fedora-29-minimial by running the usual command:

$ sudo qubes-dom0-update qubes-template-fedora-29-minimial

This worked, but I messed up the template itself when doing some 
experimentation. So, I removed said template and attempted to reinstall it.

When I try to perform the reinstall, I get an error message saying that the 
package does not exist. What could be the cause of this?

It does show up when searching for it:

$ sudo qubes-dom0-update --action=search qubes-template-fedora-29-minimal
