- 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.

Ability to read the program's manual from the terminal is much better
than to ask the user to search the manual page on the internet, we
already trust the installed program and documentation, but we should not
trust every manual page on the internet.
- Maim causes no errors and has region and window capabilities;
- Scrot region capture puts some weird borders when dragging the mouse;
- Spectacle allows editing but is too feature rich (complicated); and
- Xfce4-screenshooter does not allow selecting both region and window.

It is not possible to troubleshoot network module loading without
pciutils. Although it is a troubleshooting tools, it is not
troubleshooting the network, but to make the system itself be able to
load kernel modules and reach the network, therefore necessary.
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.
