It is also in debian. This is triggered by any package installation,
which updates some menu entries.
If for some reason it doesn't work, take a look at
/var/log/qubes/qrexec.TEMPLATENAME.log (put actual template name instead
of TEMPLATENAME).

I think running it every few minutes would be too big of a performance
hit. However, that command is automatically executed whenever a
template is updated.

At least, I know this happens on Fedora templates. Marek, is it not
implemented for Debian?

I am using QUBES 3.0
Fedora-21

When I install certain programs in the template VM for fedora, they do not show 
up in the AppVMs, even after restarting each of the AppVMs.

I installed google-chrome-stable, and yet, it's not reflected in the AppVMs.

I have to re-install Chrome inside the actual AppVM every time I start it up.

What's up with that...?



Did you shutdown the template vm before re-starting the appvms?
