Getting away from a debian 12 template for sys-firewall and sys-whonix

So recently updated to 4.3, the old deb 12 template that is running sys-firewall and sys-whonix cant be deleted because it is the base for the DVM. Am I correct in assuming that this will change on the next reebot if I adjust the global settings to deb-13. Then I can delete deb-12 template.

Or is this process more obtuse than that?

If I get you correctly, you need to change the template:

user@dom0 ~ $ qvm-prefs sys-firewall template
default-dvm
user@dom0 ~ $ qvm-prefs default-dvm template
fedora-43-xfce

So run:

qvm-prefs default-dvm template <your-new-template-vm-here>
