Error Command ‘qubes.SelectDirectory’ returned non-zero exit status 127. occurred.

I’m trying to backup my system but I’m receiving an error when trying to choose location. I can still create backups by typing in the path manually. The same seems to happen the other way around, when restoring from backup, it’s just the file picker that’s broken. Any ideas on what’s wrong?

From https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/templates/minimal/#debian:

The zenity package is required for interactive dialogs, e.g., file selection (#5202) and for using the Nautilus menu option to copy some files to other qubes (#6801).

It’s missing in the backup VM’s TemplateVM.
