xdg-open is more robust in choosing default application for particular
file type: it supports fallback if the preferred application isn't
working, and most importantly it support system-wide defaults
(/usr/share/applications/defaults.list,
/usr/share/applications/mimeapps.list), so no "random" application is
chosen.
By default xdg-open tries to use environment-specific tool, like
gvfs-open - which isn't good for us, because many such tools do not wait
for editor/viewer termination. That would mean that DisposableVM would
be destroyed just after opening the file.
To avoid such effect, we set DE=generic.

Apparently unmanaged devices are loaded only from main
NetworkManager.conf. Exactly the same line pasted (not typed!) to main
NetworkManager.conf works, but in
/etc/NetworkManager/conf.d/30-qubes.conf it doesn't.
BTW There was a typo in option name ("unmanaged_devices" instead of
"unmanaged-devices", but it wasn't the cause).
This reverts commit 6c4831339c.

Since /lib/modules is not mounted read-only anymore (only a selected
subdirectory there), it is no longer required to prevent kernel package
installation. Even more - since PV Grub being supported, it makes sense
to have kernel installed in the VM.

The custom way proved to be unreliable - for example does not survive
`locales` package upgrade. So settle on much more reliable way.
FixesQubesOS/qubes-issues#1195
Do not modify main /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf as it would
cause conflicts during updates. Use
/etc/NetworkManager/conf.d/30-qubes.conf instead.
Also remove some dead code for dynamically generated parts (no longer
required to "blacklist" eth0 in VMs - we have proper connection
generated for it). It was commented out for some time already

* origin/pr/31:
Fixed /etc/pam.d/su.qubes. (Moved line 'auth sufficient pam_permit.so' up. May not be low '@include' lines.)
- Prevent 'su -' from asking for password in Debian [based] templates. Thanks to @unman and @marmarek for suggesting the fix! Fixes https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-issues/issues/1128. - Changed 'ifeq (1,${DEBIANBUILD})' to 'ifeq ($(shell lsb_release -is), Debian)' to make the build work outside of Qubes Builder as well.

It isn't used anywhere - we only call `ntpdate` as part of
qubes.SyncNtpTime.
If user want to install it, he/she is free to do that.

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
