Templates
|
|
|
|
|
=========
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Every AppVM in Qubes is based on some template, this is where all the software
|
|
|
|
|
available for AppVMs is installed. Default template is based on Fedora, but
|
|
|
|
|
there are additional templates based on other Linux distributions, or with some
|
|
|
|
|
additional software installed by default. This concept is described
|
|
|
|
|
[here](/doc/GettingStarted/#appvms-domains-and-templatevms).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Some templates are available in ready to use binary form, but some of them are
|
|
|
|
|
only as a source code, which can be built using [Qubes Builder](/doc/QubesBuilder/).
|
|
|
|
|
Especially some templates "flavors" are available in source code form only.
|
|
|
|
|
Take a look at [Qubes Builder
|
|
|
|
|
documentation](https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-builder/blob/master/README.md)
|
|
|
|
|
how to compile them.

ITL Supported templates
|
|
|
|
|
-----------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For those templates ITL is responsible for build and releasing updates,
|
|
|
|
|
especially ITL guarantees that the binary updates are compiled from exactly
|
|
|
|
|
the source code we publish.

Community Supported templates
|
|
|
|
|
-----------------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Those templates are supported by Qubes Community. Some of them are available in
|
|
|
|
|
ready to use binary package (built by ITL), some are only in source code form.
|
|
|
|
|
In any case ITL does not provide updates for those templates, but such updates
|
|
|
|
|
can be provided by template maintainer.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In short - by installing those templates, you trust not only ITL and
|
|
|
|
|
distribution maintainers, but also the template maintainer. It can also happen
|
|
|
|
|
that those templates are somehow less stable, because we do not test them.
