The below script should give you the idea how to do it:


[..]

Thank you very much for sharing this script.

I would prefer very much to do it in a Salt way rather than symlinking 
directories. It seems that this is possible in Saltstack and it's mentioned in 
the Management stack documentation of Qubes here:

 https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/salt/#top-files

"For each target you can write a list of state files. Each line is a path to a 
state file (without the .sls extension) relative to the main directory. Each / 
is exchanged with a ., so you can’t reference files or directories with a . in 
their name."


Any directions on how can I include the base PATH of the pillars '/srv/salt' to 
the top or sls file?



/srv/user_salt/custom-qubes.top:

```
user:
  qubes:type:template:
- match: pillar
- .template-prefs
```

Cheers,
~Vasilis

[qubes-users] Using Qubes base Salt pillar in user_salt?

2020-12-16 Thread Vasilis

Hi,

When using the Salt user configuration located in '/srv/user_salt' what is the 
best way to use the Qubes specific pillars located (for this example) in 
'/srv/salt/_pillar'?


Step to reproduce my test:

- Install qubes.user-dirs

`qubesctl state.apply qubes.user-dirs`

- Enable custom-qubes.top

`qubesctl top.enable custom-qubes`

- File contents

/srv/user_salt/custom-qubes.top:

```
user:
  qubes:type:template:
- match: pillar
- template-prefs
```

/srv/user_salt/template-prefs.sls:

```
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
# vim: set syntax=yaml ts=2 sw=2 sts=2 et :

template-vm-preferences:
  qvm.prefs:
- include_in_backups: False
- label: black
- maxmem: 1000
- netvm: sys-firewall
- vcpus: 1

```

I get the following obvious error:

fedora-32:

ID: template-vm-preferences
  Function: qvm.prefs
Result: False
   Comment: State 'qvm.prefs' was not found in SLS 'template-prefs'
Reason: 'qvm.prefs' is not available.

You need to setup a PGP key first in `work-gpg`
(https://www.gnupg.org/gph/en/manual/c14.html#AEN25) and then use that key in
mail VM.

Qubes Split GPG documentation (https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/split-gpg/) may be
helpful here.

I don't quite understand what do you mean by "it doesn't display applications
from a DispVM". I can see all DispVM apps on i3-dmenu-desktop, are you
typing/searching using correct DispVM name?

i3 is a tiling window manager [1] and it should not be used by "typing" i3,
please read the i3 Qubes documentation [2] for more information.

Ah Great, I haven't realized that it's in stable repository.

[qubes-users] i3 wm package still in testing

Hi,

It seems that the i3 window manager has been in the testing repository for a
while, and I don't see many bug reports or posts on the mailing lists with
problems associated to the i3 window manager.

Anything else required to make this package stable or when it can be moved to
the stable repository?

You should be able to change the timezone with the `timedatectl` tool in dom0.
An example to set the system timezone Europe/London:

# sudo timedatectl set-timezone 'Europe/London'

For time changes to take effect in other VMs be sure to restart them after
updating the time or perhaps there is a better that I'm unaware of.
