Fedora-36 template update prompt evan after EOL in MAY

Hello all, is it normal to receive a fedora-36 Update prompt even after EOL? From what i know and have read there will be no more updates.

Any thoughts on this? could it indicate something negative?

It would be good to state here which specific packages and versions of them “need/would be” update(d).

Idk, How do i find out? Do i proceed with the update in order to find out?

You can open its terminal and enter

sudo dnf update

Before you confirm the update, it should tell you which packages are going to be updated.

These are all updates coming from the Qubes team, not from Fedora.

okay so I guess its safe. Thanks for the help

Well, it is not Qubes specific, but you can run

sudo dnf list upgrades

That is exactly why I asked, because I suspected these were Qubes updates. He may want to mark some post as solution, so it could help other users too.

They still build Qubes related packages for Fedora 36 for some reason:
