Well I tried both to no avail...
The .xz is indeed missing from the template....
There is no filter-updates file...it is  filter-qubes-yum only

I add the line and follow the rest...but same set of fails happens.

So I tried updating the entire template, and same problem happens,
and the .xz lines remains missing with this method.

Either way neither is making this work.

<br>&gt; &gt;&gt; On Fedora 20 and started having some problems with the \

<br>&gt; &gt;&gt; I have a Template that I am trying to install Chrome on and I&#39;m \
getting  <br>&gt; &gt;&gt; error messages that range from mirror unreachable to \
cannot retrieve  <br>&gt; &gt;&gt; metalink for repository to 403 errors, etc.
<br>&gt; &gt;&gt;
<br>&gt; &gt;&gt; I get that standard 4 message suggestion warning of which I&#39;ve \
tried the  <br>&gt; &gt;&gt; suggestions.   I&#39;ve cleaned out yum and the db and \
the metalinks and reran  <br>&gt; &gt;&gt; it to no avail.
<br>&gt; &gt;&gt;
<br>&gt; &gt;&gt; When I do just a 
<br>&gt; &gt;&gt; sudo yum update
<br>&gt; &gt;&gt; I get errors on pkgtags and primary_db and group_gz portions of the \
 <br>&gt; &gt;&gt; update depending on if I try using update or upgrade.
<br>&gt; &gt;&gt;
<br>&gt; &gt;&gt; I used to have this working no problem then it just stopped \
updating  <br>&gt; &gt;&gt; properly.   I saw the one other thread having a similar \
issue but the  <br>&gt; &gt;&gt; suggestions listed did not work for me, and the OP \
simply said the update  <br>&gt; &gt;&gt; just started working for them after about \
24 hours of trying it. <br>&gt; &gt;&gt;
<br>&gt; &gt;&gt; Any suggestions welcome.
<br>&gt; &gt;&gt;
<br>&gt; &gt;&gt;
<br>&gt; &gt; Perhaps these problems are due to Fedora 20 end of life on June 23 \
2015. I  <br>&gt; &gt; suppose no repository maintainer fixes these problems any \
more. <br>&gt; &gt;
<br>&gt; &gt; I would try to upgrade to Federa 21.
<br>&gt;
<br>&gt; Any suggestions on the posted link errors? 
<br>
<br>I think this is all because xz compression used in Fedora 21 repos. This
<br>wasn&#39;t included in updates proxy whitelist in Qubes R2 original packages
<br>(but was included in later update).
<br>
<br>So you have two options:
<br>1. Temporary change the updates proxy configuration manually
<br>2. First update qubes-core-vm package and then the whole template.
<br>
<br>As for the first option, open terminal in netvm, edit (as root)
<br>/etc/tinyproxy/filter-updates and add xz compression to appropriate line.
<br>That line should look like this (important part is at the end):
<br>/repodata/[A-Za-z0-9-]*\(<wbr>primary\|filelists\|comps\(-[<wbr>a-z0-9]*\)\?\|othe \
r\|<wbr>prestodelta\|updateinfo\|<wbr>pkgtags\)\.\(sqlite\|xml\)\(\.<wbr>bz2\|\.gz\|\.xz\)\?$
 <br>
<br>Then save the file, and restart updates proxy service (not the whole
<br>netvm!):
<br>sudo systemctl restart qubes-updates-proxy
<br>
<br>(if that fails with &quot;No such file or directory&quot; error, use
<br>&quot;qubes-yum-proxy&quot; instead)
<br>
<br>
<br>If you&#39;re going with the second option:
<br>(in template on which your netvm is based): sudo yum update
<br>- --disablerepo=* --enablerepo=qubes-vm-r2-<wbr>current
<br>
<br>Then shutdown the template and restart netvm (or simply the whole
<br>system).
<br>
<br>The first option is quicker, but needs to be repeated after each netvm
<br>restart (until you update the template).
