R4.2.1

Brief summary

Kicksecure template repo salt config/state fails when attempting to upgrade packages. The salt configuration assumes the user is using/desires to use sys-cacher.

Steps to reproduce

Follow guidelines and steps in README.md. Run sudo qubesctl --targets=kicksecure-17-minimal state.apply

Expected behavior

Finish updating template without issues.

Actual behavior

Discover that repos have been changed to http://HTTPS/// and that sys-cacher-config is failing because user is not using sys-cacher. .

Thanks. I will correct it on multiple formulas together with a detection mechanism to check if repos should be rewritten or not.

As we are not in production, you will have to revert to a good state manually:

qvm-tags kicksecure-17-minimal del updatevm-sys-cacher
sudo qubesctl --skip-dom0 --targets=kicksecure-17-minimal state.apply sys-cacher.uninstall-client
