<br> ## Default packages
Install In order to keep the template as small and simple as possible, default installed package have been arbitrarily selected based on multiple subjective criterias that however essentially include libraries dependencies. This packages are:
------- * Some font packages to keep good user experience
* leafpad: a note pad
* xfce4-terminal: a terminal
* thunar: a file browser that support mounting usb keys
* firefox: web browser
* thunderbird: a mail browser
* evince: a document viewer
A prebuilt template is available only for Qubes 3.2. Before Qubes 3.2, it should be compiled from source as described in [building-archlinux-template](/doc/building-archlinux-template/). Note that Archlinux does not install GUI packages by default as this decision is left to users. This packages have only been selected to have a usable template.

## **Known Issues:** ## ### Package cannot be updated because of errors related to xorg-server or pulseaudio versions
### **Package cannot be updated because of errors related to xorg-server or pulseaudio versions** ###
In case archlinux upgrade pulseaudio major version or xorg-server version, updating these packages will break the qubes GUI agent. To avoid breaking things, the update is blocked until a new version of the GUI agent is available. In case archlinux upgrade pulseaudio major version or xorg-server version, updating these packages will break the qubes GUI agent. To avoid breaking things, the update is blocked until a new version of the GUI agent is available.
In this case, the gui-agent-linux component of Qubes-OS needs to be rebuild using these last xorg-server or pulseaudio libraries. You can try to rebuilt it yourself or wait for a new qubes-vm-gui package to be available.
