Hello,
I just tried to refresh the firmware update metadata with

$ sudo qubes-fwupdmgr refresh

and it outputs:

sudo qubes-fwupdmgr refresh

Failed to refresh remote 'lvfs': qvm-run: Copying metadata signature failed!!

What is the problem that the copy process fails? Is it a known bug?

Additional Information: Dom0 is up to date with stable channel and sys-whonix as dom0 update qube also. sys-whonix also has fwupd-qubes-vm installed

I just ran into this too. It looks like LVFS has stopped publishing the PGP signature that qubes-fwupdmgr requires. I filed an issue. Unfortunately, this does not look easy to fix.
