The /etc/dconf/profile/user file in some distributions is part of dconf
package, in some not. There are even cases where it changes between
package versions (Fedora 27 don't have it, but Fedora 28 do).
Also, base Debian Stretch don't have it, but Kali Linux based on it do.
To avoid overly complex dependency handling, create the file dynamically
on package installation if it's missing in that particular case. The
file content is canonical:
user-db:user
system-db:local

- BACKEND_VMM may not be available as env variable (mock build), provide
it explicitly
- 'user' group may not exists at package build time, set it at package
installation
qubes-gui agent calls su-l instead of initializing its own pam
session such as qrexec.
pam.d/su-l qubes specific configuration must be restored to ensure
that the user login session is properly initialized:

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.
QubesOS/qubes-issues#1354
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

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
This systemd service is not disruptive to the boot process if it fails to mount /lib/modules (because it has been mounted before systemd switched the root directory to the real one).
The advantage is that it will boot /usr/lib/modules even if dracut doesn't handle root switch pre-hook, which is the case on archlinux.
It then allows booting an archlinux AppVM using an archlinux kernel.
