Ben Grande f9ead06408 fix: remove extraneous package repository updates
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.

vault

Vault environment in Qubes OS.

Table of Contents

Description

An offline qube will be created and named "vault", it will have a password manager for high entropy passwords, PGP and SSH client for creating private keys.

Installation

  • Top:
sudo qubesctl top.enable vault
sudo qubesctl --targets=tpl-vault state.apply
sudo qubesctl top.disable vault
sudo qubesctl state.apply vault.appmenus
  • State:
sudo qubesctl state.apply vault.create
sudo qubesctl --skip-dom0 --targets=tpl-vault state.apply vault.install
sudo qubesctl state.apply vault.appmenus

Usage

The intended usage is to hold passwords and keys. You should copy the keys generated from the vault to another qube, which can be a split agent server for SSH, PGP, Pass. A compromise of the client qube can escalate into a compromise of the qubes it can run RPC services, therefore a separate vault is appropriate according to your threat model.
