- there are many netcat versions (openbsd, nmap, ...), which behave
differently - especially while handling EOF
- Debian jessie doesn't have nmap-ncat (which handle EOFs sufficiently
good)

While it doesn't make sense to install qubes-core-agent without qrexec,
it may make sense to do the otherway around - install just
qrexec-agent without all the qrexec services and configuration. For
example on some pre-installed system.

When a file is moved to other package, the new package needs Replaces:
and Breaks: dependecies on old package. Otherwise dpkg will refuse to
change file ownership.

This will save a lot of dependencies if networking is not needed in VMs
based on given template. Thanks to updates proxy over qrexec, template
itself do not need to have network configured too.

In Fedora it makes little sense, but in Debian it allows to avoid a lot
of dependencies. So split in both, to keep it simple.

This is meant to notify dom0 about features supported by just-installed
template. This service is called by dom0 just after template
installation.

Configure package manager to use 127.0.0.1:8082 as proxy instead of
"magic" IP intercepted later. The listen on this port and whenever
new connection arrives, spawn qubes.UpdatesProxy service call (to
default target domain - subject to configuration in dom0) and connect
its stdin/out to the local TCP connection. This part use systemd.socket
unit in case of systemd, and ncat --exec otherwise.
On the other end - in target domain - simply pass stdin/out to updates
proxy (tinyproxy) running locally.
It's important to _not_ configure the same VM to both be updates proxy and
use it. In practice such configuration makes little sense - if VM can
access network (which is required to run updates proxy), package manager
can use it directly. Even if this network access is through some
VPN/Tor. If a single VM would be configured as both proxy provider and
proxy user, connection would loop back to itself. Because of this, proxy
connection redirection (to qrexec service) is disabled when the same VM
also run updates proxy.

...but installed on all Debian versions. This is mostly required by
vebose file list in debian/qubes-core-agent.install. But also make it
use new options when upstream will set them.
QubesOS/qubes-issues#2161
This reverts commit 5dfcf06ef4.
python3-daemon isn't widespread enough yet - for Debian jessie available
only in packports.
In addition to the revert itself, adjust packaging for this change
(mostly for Debian).
Add --install-layout=deb option to setup.py, so files will not land in
/usr/local.
Also, explicitly list packaged files - make it easier to split the
package later.
This way:
- VM prompt do know VM list, the list may be filtered based on policy
- source VM don't learn name of target VM

* qubesos/pr/25:
Add systemd override for haveged in xenial and stretch. (#2161) Reenable haveged.service after debian package installation
FixesQubesOS/qubes-issues#2161
This rewrite is mainly to adopt new interface for Qubes 4.x.
Main changes:
- change language from bash to python, introduce qubesagent python package
- support both nftables (preferred) and iptables
- new interface (https://qubes-os.org/doc/vm-interface/)
- IPv6 support
- unit tests included
- nftables version support running along with other firewall loaded

The systemctl in Debian unstable fails when trying to disable a removed
service. The manpage do not mention a switch to change this behaviour.
But it says:
Note that this operation creates only the suggested symlinks for
the units. While this command is the recommended way to manipulate
the unit configuration directory, the administrator is free to make
additional changes manually by placing or removing symlinks in the
directory.
So a simple rm should be fine.
