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.

Provided in the default Dom0 installation as it brings a much better
usability and small packages.
KDE ships with kdialog but without a screenshot utility.
Xfce ships with xfce4-screenshooter but without a dialog utility.
Scrot and Zenity are minimal tools that works on both DEs and are very
small packages.

A Minimal Fedora template can't be the management qube or the targeted
qube of Salt as it is missing dependencies that are only available in
the full template. The management qube is temporarily changed to the
non-minimal version so the minimal template can be targeted once and
then it takes over the management disposable template.

- End qrexec policy with deny rules;
- Move the USB setup from sys-audio to sys-usb; and
- Document the pros and cons of the different types of USB devices
assignment to client qubes or to the server.
The target of qubes.ConnectTCP has 'socat' because it is a dependency of
qubes-core-agent-networking. In case the target has not networking
packages, this needs to be taken care by the formula that creates the
target, not from the client itself.
