Qubes OS version (e.g., R3.1):

R3.2

Affected TemplateVMs (e.g., fedora-23, if applicable):

All


Expected behavior:

When renaming using the Qubes manager the AppVM should be renamed in the Qubes manager, application launcher and changed directory in /var/lib/qubes/appvms.

Actual behavior:

When renaming a AppVM using the qubes manager it changes the directory in /var/lib/qubes/appvms and the changes propagates to the application launcher. The entry in the manager doesn't change. This make the AppVM unusable because I can no longer start the VM.

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Create a new AppVM. Which TemplateVM doesn't matter.
  2. Rename the new AppVM using the Qubes manager.

General notes:

Using the qvm-prefs CLI tool works without a problem.

It could be the same problem, but now it happens everytime and also effect AppVMs.

Can't reproduce. Anything special about those names? Maybe the VM is running or something?

It's the same issue as #2054, but with AppVMs.
