In Qubes 4.0, additional packages from the `qubes-core-agent` suite may be needed to make the customized minimal template work properly.
These packages are:
- `qubes-core-agent-nautilus`: This package provides integration with the Nautilus file manager (without it, items like "copy to VM/open in disposable VM" will not be shown in Nautilus).
- `qubes-core-agent-thunar`: This package provides integration with the thunar file manager (without it, items like "copy to VM/open in disposable VM" will not be shown in thunar).
- `qubes-core-agent-dom0-updates`: Script required to handle `dom0` updates. Any template on which the qube responsible for 'dom0' updates (e.g. `sys-firewall`) is based must contain this package.
- `qubes-menus`: Defines menu layout.
- `qubes-desktop-linux-common`: Contains icons and scripts to improve desktop experience.
- `qubes-core-agent-qrexec`: Qubes qrexec agent. Installed by default.
- `qubes-core-agent-systemd`: Qubes unit files for SystemD init style. Installed by default.
- `qubes-core-agent-passwordless-root`, `polkit`: By default, the Fedora Minimal template doesn't have passwordless root. These two packages enable this feature.
- `qubes-core-agent-sysvinit`: Qubes unit files for SysV init style or upstart.
Also, there are packages to provide additional services:
- `qubes-gpg-split`: For implementing split GPG.
- `qubes-u2f`: For implementing secure forwarding of U2F messages.
- `qubes-pdf-converter`: For implementing safe conversion of PDFs.
- `qubes-img-converter`: For implementing safe conversion of images.
- `qubes-snapd-helper`: If you want to use snaps in qubes.
- `qubes-thunderbird`: Additional tools for use in thunderbird.
- `qubes-app-shutdown-idle`: If you want qubes to automatically shutdown when idle.
- `qubes-mgmt-salt-vm-connector`: If you want to use salt management on the template and qubes.
You may also wish to consider additional packages from the `qubes-core-agent` suite:
- `qubes-core-agent-qrexec`: Qubes qrexec agent. Installed by default.

- `qubes-core-agent-sysvinit`: Qubes unit files for SysV init style or upstart.
- `qubes-core-agent-networking`: Networking support. Required for general network access and particularly if the template is to be used for a `sys-net` or `sys-firewall` VM.
- `qubes-core-agent-network-manager`: Integration for NetworkManager. Useful if the template is to be used for a `sys-net` VM.
- `network-manager-applet`: Useful `notification-daemon` to have a system tray icon if the template is to be used for a `sys-net` VM.
- `qubes-core-agent-dom0-updates`: Script required to handle `dom0` updates. Any template which the VM responsible for 'dom0' updates (e.g. `sys-firewall`) is based on must contain this package.
- `qubes-usb-proxy`: Required if the template is to be used for a USB qube (`sys-usb`) or for any destination qube to which USB devices are to be attached (e.g `sys-net` if using USB network adapter).
- `qubes-input-proxy-sender`: Provides USB keyboard and mouse input from a USB qube (`sys-usb`) to dom0.
- `pulseaudio-qubes`: Needed to have audio on the template VM.

You could, of course, use `qubes-vm-recommended` to automatically install many of these, but in that case you are well on the way to a standard Debian template.
