- add missing lvm remove call when commiting changes - delay creating volatile image until domain startup (it will be created then anyway) - reset cache only when really changed anything - attach VM to the volume (snapshot) created for its runtime - to not expose changes (for example in root volume) to child VMs until shutdown QubesOS/qubes-issues#2412 QubesOS/qubes-issues#2256

/var/log/qubes directory have setgid set, so all the files will be owned by qubes group (that's ok), but there is no enforcement of creating it group writable, which undermine group ownership (logs created by root would not be writable by normal user) QubesOS/qubes-issues#2412

'-' is invalid character in python identifier, so all the properties have '_'. But in previous versions qvm-* tools accepted names with '-', so lets not break this. QubesOS/qubes-issues#2412

VM files may be already removed. Don't fail on this while removing a VM, it's probably the reason why domain is being removed. qvm-remove tool have its own guard for this, but it isn't enough - if rmtree(dir_path) fails, storage.remove() would not be called, so non-file storages would not be cleaned up. This is also needed to correctly handle template reinstallation - where VM directory is moved away to call create_on_disk again. QubesOS/qubes-issues#2412

This is intended to call to finish template installation/removal. Template RPM package is basically container for root.img, nothing more. Other parts needs to be generated after root.img extraction. Previously it was open coded in rpm post-install script, but lets keep it as qvm tool to ease supporting multiple version in template builder QubesOS/qubes-issues#2412

When system is installed with LVM thin pool, it should be used by default. But lets keep file-based on for /var/lib/qubes for some corner cases, migration etc. QubesOS/qubes-issues#2412

None of properties set there do any "dangerous thing" for filesystem permissions (at least for now), so do not require it. This is mostly to keep compatibility with %post rpm scripts (kernel-qubes-vm at least). QubesOS/qubes-issues#2412

Skip system-wide dracut config, specifically /etc/dracut.conf.d/plymouth-missing-fonts.conf, which loads 'label' plymouth plugin, which in turn pulls a lot of libraries (including libX11). QubesOS/qubes-issues#2412 (cherry picked from commit f9bb3b2)

This is tracking ticket for problems blocking Qubes 4.0 installation.
qubes-createnot calledqvm-add-templatecalled from RPM post-installation script do not exists)root.imgnot migrated to LVM thin pool (if enabled)qubes_dom0/pool00name - it should automatically detect pool name based on selected installation (probably look at pool where root filesystem is placed)qubes-prefsandqvm-prefshave changed options (no longer accept--setor--getoption, properties have underscores) (*)qubes-prefsrequires--force-rootto even get property value (qubes-netvm.service)qvm-startdo not accept--no-guidoption (was renamed to--no-start-guid) (*)Generally, lets not break things just for the sake of breaking - there is no point in renaming options if their meaning is exactly the same. This applies to points marked with (*). Even when introducing new version (like
qvm-prefswithout--set/--get), lets still accept the old one. Especially when it's trivial to achieve.The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
