It's already using the default Fedora temolate, and all the Fedora templates work just fine using the exact same update VM (sys-firewall) itself, there's probably a more subtle fix but I would switch my AppVMs > over to Fedora, delete & reinstall a fresh copy of the Debian template, > then switch them back. > I installed the stock Debian-10 rpm yesterday and it also fails to update using the default proxy. The whonix templates based on Debian work because they are using a different update vm. I really don't have a clue how all the Fedora templates work using the exact same default update proxy while the Debian ones do not. I have not made any deliberate custom modifications to any of the update settings, but something obviously changed. My suspicion is on the receiving side proxy configuration in sys-firewall but I don't know how to debug that. With the TERM setting being complained about I am wondering how this proxy is being launched without a full set of environment variables. This error text is in red, as coming through the pipe, so its on the other side, not in the template itself. The update pipe is not a terminal afaik so I don't know why the proxy would be complaining it doesn't know the terminal type. But then why does the Fedora update still work and Debian not using the exact same update gateway.
