I just wanted to create a new TemplateVM, but suddenly I got this error message “error: type error qubesbase.clone_vm () takes 3 positional arguments but 4 were given”.
How can I fix this error?

* `Upload-component r4.2 core-admin-client fda74dc58b905a741c23411dee381d19a59a9528 security-testing all`
You can choose subset of distributions like:

Above commands will work only if packages in current-testing repository were built from given commit (i.e. no new version superseded it).
For more information on how to test this update, please take a look at https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/testing/#updates.
If you want to install the package before it is sent to the stable repository, you can use the following command in a dom0 terminal:
sudo qubes-dom0-update --enablerepo=qubes-dom0-current-testing qubes-core-admin-client-4.2.17
Or right click template and select “clone” and then rename cloned template?

That’s funny! If the quality of the “stable” repository (or more exactly “the lack of…”) led to this error… is it reasonable to install from the testing repository?
