Echo can interpret operand as an option and checking every variable to
be echoed is troublesome while with printf, if the format specifier is
present before the operand, printing as string can be enforced.
The feature is more reliable than the whonix-updatevm tag as the tag can
be deleted for other Whonix tags to take effect to target different
gateways, which is the case for the Bitcoin formula.
Make shell a little bit safer with:
- add-default-case
- check-extra-masked-returns
- check-set-e-suppressed
- quote-safe-variables
- check-unassigned-uppercase
Although there are some stylistic decisions for uniformity:
- avoid-nullary-conditions
- deprecated-which
- require-variable-braces
Editorconfig can only act based on file extension and path, not
attributes, it remains a mean only for multiple collaborators to use the
same configuration on their editor. When it is too restrictive, such as
not considering the file syntax, use a lint tool for the specific file
type instead of trusting editorconfig. Changes were made to increase
readability.
Only way to have a unified markdown syntax is to enforce the wanted
syntax by linting the files. Don't rely on the many markdown syntaxes,
be consistent.
- Document preferred method for socket use depending on use case;
- Fix Github web-flow key;
- Standardize naming of services;
- Use sys-ssh in ansible formula;
- Start services conditionally with Qubes Service and evaluated by
systemd ConditionPathExists= instead of installing on a per qube basis
with rc.local scripts;
- Change Qusal services to "qusal-" prefix instead of "qubes-" prefix.

Running apt-cacher-ng-repo is during update is unnecessary, the
install-repo macro already does it and the systemd service is run on
boot before Qrexec Agent starts.

Only deb and rpm where cached and only if used from the Qubes website
and made to individual directories. Now every package from every package
manager Qubes supports will be cached.
Update according to upstream.
- Enforce uninstall in Fedora, it has been too problematic due to zchunk
checksum mismatch errors;
- Skip tagging and installing on unsupported qubes, before it tagged
every template that did not have the tag 'whonix-updatevm', this is
error prone as it would fail the installation on unsupported clients
such as Gentoo, Mirage.

Qubes that have the updates-proxy-service enabled will have the
repository definitions set to work with the proxy, being it a TemplateVM
or another type of qube. Qubes that have that same service disabled and
are based on templates that are being cached, will have the repository
definitions corrected for it to work like normal systems via the
networking instead of caching proxy.
Optimizations were done for a faster runtime, previously it would call
sed 38 times on Fedora-39, now it only calls sed 2 times for Fedora
repositories (one extra for rpmfusion) and some more for PackageKit and
dnf.conf markers. Inexpensive runtime is a must for a script that may
run multiple times, such as when being called by a tool monitoring the
filesystem such as inotify.
Code from /usr/lib/qubes/update-proxy-configs was used for the NetVM use
case of the cacher, thus the license had to be changed.

Very useful for template based qubes to uninstall the cacher definition
to reach remote repository definitions with direct connection.

Updates happens multiple times, normally 2 to 3, even if we consider a
state without includes. On states with multiple includes, it could
easily get approximately 10 updates being ran. This behavior leads to
unnecessary network bandwidth being spent and more time to run the
installation state. When the connection is slow and not using the
cacher, such as torified connections on Whonix, the installation can
occurs much faster.
Adding external repositories has to be done prior to update to ensure it
is also fetched.
