I followed the guide linked here

Ubuntu template(s)
==================

If you would like to use Ubuntu Linux distribution in your AppVMs, you can build and install one of the available Ubuntu templates.
These templates are currently not provided by Qubes in ready to use binary packages, because Canonical does not allow redistribution of a modified Ubuntu.
The redistribution is not allowed by their [Intellectual property rights policy][IP].

Building the Template
-------

Templates can be built using [Qubes Builder][builder]  
(You can also access documentation in the [source code repository][repo].)

Please carefully read the [instructions][builder] for setting up and using Qubes Builder.  
To quickly prepare the builder configuration, you can use the `setup` script available in the repository - it will interactively ask you which templates you want to build.  
Select one of the Ubuntu version options.  
On the "Choose Pre-Built Packages Repositories" page you must not select either option.  
This is because Qubes does not provide offical Pre-Built packages for Ubuntu.

I tried ‘make distclean’ and running again but my issue was not solved, I could not find any information pertaining to my issue on the qubes forums so any help would be much appreciated
