Having performed an in-place system upgrade, I’m now trying to migrate my Whonix installation to version 18.
Listing the installed templates I noticed that all of them are still referring to 4.2 repositories:
[vr@dom0 ~]$
[vr@dom0 ~]$ qvm-template list

I have the following questions:
- Q1: Is it save to call the qubes-dist-upgrade tool another time, using just the ‘–template-standalone-upgrade’ option ?
- Q2: Are the logs of my previous in-place upgrade still available in dom0, so that I can investigate why the switch did not occur / succeed ?
