qubes-desktop-file-install is called by qubes-triggers-desktop-file-install. It's
arguments are based on the Gnome desktop-install-file utility to allow it to be replaced
by same. Currently the Gnome utility can not be used since it automatically validates
the .desktop entry files with no option to skip validation and will fail on some third
party .desktop files that are not formed properly.
A single trigger script is shared between Fedora, Debian. This script is used by the
package managers triggers and will copy original .desktop files from `/etc/xdg/autostart`
to `/usr/share/qubes/xdg/autostart` and modify the OnlyShownIn / NotShownIn, etc. The
original .desktop files are left untouched and left in place.
Qubes modifies the XDG_CONFIG_DIRS to first include the `/usr/share/qubes/xdg`
directory (XDG_CONFIG_DIRS=/usr/share/qubes/xdg:/etc/xdg).
If a package gets removed, it's desktop entry is also removed from the /usr/share/qubes/xdg
directory.
'qubes-desktop-file-install' options:
--dir DIR Install desktop files to the DIR directory (default: <FILE>)
--force Force overwrite of existing desktop files (default: False)
--remove-show-in Remove the "OnlyShowIn" and "NotShowIn" entries from the desktop file (default: False)
--remove-key KEY Remove the KEY key from the desktop files, if present
--set-key (KEY VALUE) Set the KEY key to VALUE
--remove-only-show-in ENVIRONMENT Remove ENVIRONMENT from the list of desktop environment where the desktop files should be displayed
--add-only-show-in ENVIRONMENT Add ENVIRONMENT to the list of desktop environment where the desktop files should be displayed
--remove-not-show-in ENVIRONMENT Remove ENVIRONMENT from the list of desktop environment where the desktop files should not be displayed
--add-not-show-in ENVIRONMENT Add ENVIRONMENT to the list of desktop environment where the desktop files should not be displayed
Restore support for older yum: no --downloadonly option, so use
yumdownloader.
Also add some a code to handle some Debian quirks - especially default
rpmdb location in user home...
A file is created in /var/lib/qubes/protected-files. Scripts can grep this file before modifying
known files to be protected and skip any modifications if the file path is within protected-files.
Usage Example:
if ! grep -q "^/etc/hostname$" "${PROTECTED_FILE_LIST}" 2>/dev/null; then
Also cleaned up maintainer scripts removing unneeded systemd status functions and streamlined
the enable/disable systemd unit files functions
systemctl is-enabled always reports "disabled" for them (actually not a
real "disabled", but and error, but exit code is the same). So simply
always disable the unit, it is no-op for already disabled ones.
BTW systemctl preset also do not work for them.
This will ignore excluded deb, rpm, pkg and .git directories that were
tar'ed for the .orig.tar.gz debian upstream package file and will prevent
build errors
- Use copy-in for debian-quilt package in Makefile.builder instead of hook (to be removed) in Makefile.debian
- Remove patches from debian/patches; they are now applied dynamicly from series-debian-vm.conf

This is to allow permissions to be set on some devices where the user needs
less restrictive permissions. /etc/udev/rules.d/99-qubes-misc.rules changes
a few xen devices to allow the users in the qubes group access
