- 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.

It is expected to be killed by a signal. Exit with returncode 0 anyway.
While at it, adjust it for current service format (executable, with
proper shebang).
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.

Documentation pending: QubesOS/qubes-issues#2829
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.

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

glib-compile-schemas recommend naming override files with nn_ prefix,
where nn is a number. Lets use 20, to allow both higher and lower
priority files.
QubesOS/qubes-issues#1108
When `qubes-dom0-update --refresh` was called, the script checked
metadata twice - once to check updates availability, then to actually
download them. This two stage approach is needed only on Debian, when
--downloadonly option is not supported. Rearrange code accordingly.
Also, drop --doit option (ignore it), as the same (but more readable)
can be achieved with --check-only.
When /etc/yum.conf is not present (yum-deprecated not installed), don't
try to append to it. It would result in invalid configuration file -
without any section header, and break yum when installed later.
This looks like an overkill. And more importantly - required modules are
not installed by default, making it impossible to use in default minimal
template.

qubes-early-vm-config.service depend on qubes-db daemon running, to
