fix: guarantee a fully updated system on bootstrap 
If user just installed Qubes, the full templates can have updates
available. If user restored backups of templates and standalones, they
could also have updates available. Available updates can contain fixes
that if not applied, can make the states fail, such as a buggy salt
package and Qrexec service that can make a state fail in case the
full outdated templates and standalones are responsible for the
functionality specially of management_dispvm, updatevm, default_netvm
and qubes.UpdatesProxy service.

Table of Contents

Description

Configure Dom0 window manager, install packages, backup scripts and profile etc.

Installation

  • Top:
sudo qubesctl top.enable dom0
sudo qubesctl state.apply
sudo qubesctl top.disable dom0
sudo qubesctl --skip-dom0 --templates --standalones state.apply update.qubes-vm
  • State:
sudo qubesctl state.apply dom0
sudo qubesctl --skip-dom0 --templates --standalones state.apply update.qubes-vm

If you need to develop in Dom0, install some goodies (bare bones):

sudo qubesctl state.apply dom0.install-dev

To forward ports from qubes to the external world:

sudo qubesctl state.apply dom0.port-forward

Choose your Dom0 environment

Instead of running the state dom0, you can select which states to apply:

  • Window Manager i3:
sudo qubesctl state.apply dom0.desktop-i3,dom0.desktop-i3-settings
  • Window Manager AwesomeWM:
sudo qubesctl state.apply dom0.desktop-awesome

Follow the same syntax for other dom0 states you desire.

Usage

You may have noticed the desktop experience in Dom0 has enhanced. You are using KDE now. You can enforce domains to appear in certain activity with KWin rules, a tool qubes-kde-win-rules is provided to assist you.

Qubes backup has also improved, you have a profile provided as an example on how to do backups with native Qubes OS tools. Use the tool qvm-backup-find-last to find the last Qubes Backup made locally to a qube or a remote system, this facilitates verifying the last backup made with qvm-backup-restore --verify-only. An example is provided in /etc/qubes/backup/qusal.conf.example.
