Cannot qubes-dom0-update after qubes-dom0-update

[ohreally]

Qubes OS version:

R4.0rc3

Affected TemplateVMs:

None (dom0 issue).

---

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

qubes-dom0-update

Expected behavior:

Stuff works.

Actual behavior:

# qubes-dom0-update
Using sys-whonix as UpdateVM to download updates for Dom0; this may take some time...
http://yum.qubes-os.org/r%24releasever/current/dom0/fc25/repodata/repomd.xml: [Errno 14] PYCURL ERROR 22 - "The requested URL returned error: 404 Not Found"
Trying other mirror.
Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: qubes-dom0-current. Please verify its path and try again

Instead of replacing $releasever in the repo URL with the release version, the $ in the config file is URL encoded.
Hardcoding r4.0 instead of r$releasever in both /etc/yum.repos.d/qubes-dom0.repo and /etc/yum.repos.d/qubes-templates.repo allows me to run qubes-dom0-update again.

General notes:

After running qubes-dom0-update a first time, I ran qubes-dom0-update a second time, to see if the problems I encountered were solved in the days between the first update and the reboot following it. The problem described occurred with the second run.

This looks to be related to sys-whonix as UpdateVM.

Is whonix-gw template up to date? Is it fresh install, or template restored from a backup (migrated from R3.2)?

This is a fresh install (24-12-2017), and I have not yet updated the whonix templates.
