Q: What is Qubes' attitude toward changing guest distros?
---------------------------------------------------------
We try to respect each distro's culture, where possibe. See the discussion on
We try to respect each distro's culture, where possible. See the discussion on
issue [#1014](https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-issues/issues/1014) for an
example.
The policy is there mostly to ease maintenance, on several levels:
* Less modifications means easier migration to new upstream distribution
releases
* Upstream documentation matching the distribution running in Qubes VM
* Less likely to introduce Qubes-specific issues
* Each officially supported distribution (ideally) should offer the same set of
Qubes-specific features - a change in one supported distribution should be
followed also in others (including some new in the future)
