Description of Changes
In a normal production install, we install the

dnf, which has no network access, and is therefore unable to download missing dependencies. We can workaround this by passing the dependency list toqubes-dom0-updateprior to RPM installation. I was unable to figure out how to pass a local RPM file qubes-dom0-update in the same way you can to dnf.Testing
