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
Even when iptables.service is configured to use different file, the
service would not start when there is no /etc/sysconfig/iptables. Fedora
20 package does not provide it.
Instead of overriding /etc/sysconfig/ip{,6}tables, store qubes rules in
/etc/sysconfig/iptables.qubes and configure the service to use that file
instead. This will prevent conflict on that file and also handle upgrades.
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
This will probably break some user configuration. Do that only when
installing for the first time (during template build), during upgrade
set only those installed by this package instead of all.
This process should be started from user session (most likely
qubes-session). New processes (of that user) will be created as
children of that session making logind and such crap happy. This should
also solve problems with EOF transmission (no additional "su" process)
and prevent loading all the environment multiple times.
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
Moved iptables configuration to /usr/lib/qubes/init
fc21 + debian + arch will place them in proper place on postinst
Fixes dedian bug of not having them in proper place
