Dom0 Update Issue

When I try to update my dom0, I get this. (version 4.2.1)

Detailed information will be displayed after update.
dom0 does not support in-progress update information.
Error on updating dom0: Command '['sudo', 'qubesctl', '--dom0-only', '--no-color', 'pkg.upgrade', 'refresh=True']' returned non-zero exit status 1.

I know that there have been many other posts of people with this issue, however I can’t find any answer that contains some information on what I can actually do to solve this.

Try to run sudo qubes-dom0-update in dom0 terminal, maybe there will be more log messages.

It seems that after waiting a while the issue fixed itself. Had something to do with key signing and it seems like this was a issue in 4.0.x but got resolved now.
