Dear Qubes Community,

Fedora 32 has reached EOL (end-of-life [1]). If you have not already
done so, we strongly recommend upgrading [2] your Fedora 32 TemplateVMs
and StandaloneVMs to Fedora 33 immediately. We provide a fresh Fedora 33
TemplateVM package through the official Qubes repositories, which you
can install in dom0 by following the standard installation instructions
[3]. Alternatively, we also provide step-by-step instructions for
performing an in-place upgrade [4] of an existing Fedora TemplateVM.
After upgrading your TemplateVMs, please remember to switch all qubes
that were using the old template to use the new one [5].

For a complete list of TemplateVM versions supported for your specific
version of Qubes, see Supported TemplateVM Versions [6].

Please note that no user action is required regarding the OS version in
dom0. For details, please see our note on dom0 and EOL [7].

Perhaps everyone is upgrading their templates after this message, but the yum.qubes-os.org repository server appears to be down, blocking dom0 updates (unless one uses a mirror or the hidden service).
