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.
### CentOS
As is the case with above-mentioned Minimal Templates, the required packages are to be installed in the running template with the following command (replace `packages` with a space-delimited list of packages to be installed):
[user@your-new-clone ~]$ sudo yum install packages
