Then I did `sudo apt upgrade -t stretch-testing`. It will upgrade the debian-9 first. After everything is done, then I will uncomment kali repository address and do upgrade the rest. This save my ass everytime, especially if anything related to 'qubes-gui-agent' towards xorg-server, pulseaudio etc stuff. What you can do now to revert everything you have done is to restore the template backup. If you don't have that, you need to clone back the debian-9 template and install katoolin like what you did before.

[qubes-users] Update killed Debian 9 / Kali template. Can't open terminal. What now?
Hi Qubes gurus, I was updating my templates today, which seemed to go fine, until I realized that the Debian 9 + Katoolin VM I made per the instructions on the wiki is now non-responsive: I can't run the updater or even open a terminal. Has this happened to anyone else? Any fallback remediation strategies I should try? Unfortunately, since I was trying to update everything at once, I can't pinpoint whether the issue was a botched update on the Kali template or a result of updating Dom-0.
