I use Zenmap (nmap gui) on an older stand-alone Kali install. This new Kali distro does not have it but it was easy enough to add following this guide. Zenmap -- Easy GUI version of Nmap
on edit: the guide is incomplete for Kali 2021.
After install, the template appmenu is populated witih Zenmap, but clicking them only gives you a flash of a window and then nothing.
I tried to launch Zenmap from terminal and this produced many dependency errors. Zenmap was not starting.
SOLVED- Kali dropped Python 2 in favor of Python 3 and Zenmap in its current incarnation depends on Python gtk2 module. I had to install Python gtk2 and its dependencies . Now Zenmap works like a charm.
BTW, Qubes 4.1 is really much more compatible (and stable) with my Dell 5520 with Xeon e3-1505, than any of the previous Qubes versions. I’ve used Qubes on this machine since Q3.1
Thanks to the Qubes team and the community for this excellent OS
I tried the frist time to copy a file to the kali template appvm and template, but then I have got a fatal error of qfileagent and that don’t work. Just the folder of the incoming qube appears but not the file. Can I fix that anyway?
thank you again for ur great help and enjoy your weekend everybody
Update: Some file type .doc for example ,but to copy .deb file works not.
Btw: to set fedora-33 as default-mgmt is working and solves the problem with updating over the qubes updater
And that fix is working for the fed-33 template, kali ,deb-11 and the xfce templates.too. So I don’t have to update these vm’s from their terminals anymore.
Unfortunately for me that doesn’t work and I need to use these commands:
1.gpg --keyserver pgpkeys.mit.edu --recv-key ED444FF07D8D0BF6
2. gpg -a --export ED444FF07D8D0BF6 | sudo apt-key add -
Then everything is fine
Can you at least say why it didn’t work? That would be helpful to other
users.
If you don’t pipe to apt-key, what is the output? wget -O - https://archive.kali.org/archive-key.asc
With the current rolling kali, qubes-qube-manager can’t update with error:
Failed to apply DSA-4371 fix: dpkg-query: package ‘libapt-pkg5.0’ is not installed and no information is available Use dpkg --info (= dpkg-deb --info) to examine archive files. Error: Failed to get apt version
The issue is, python on the fully updated kali-rolling stdout appends the following to the output of the dsa-4371 script:
┏━(Message from Kali developers)
┃
┃ We have kept /usr/bin/python pointing to Python 2 for backwards
┃ compatibility. Learn how to change this and avoid this message:
┃ ⇒ https://www.kali.org/docs/general-use/python3-transition/

┗━(Run “touch ~/.hushlogin” to hide this message)
So, to fix, on the kali template:
sudo touch ~root/.hushlogin
Then qubes-qube-manager should be able to update the template normally.
Also, after extending the root partition using kde’s partition manager, the install of the kali template still failed because the root-pool ran out of space and killed all vm’s (no vm could boot).
I think the fix was:
sudo lvextend -L 100GB qubes_dom0/root-pool
100GB is quite large, so adjust that to suite your needs.
Is it also possible to open Kali VM like a whole as I did with Kali images on virtual box? Now I have a seperate menu item for terminal and Firefox. For a training I use an openvpn tunnel to network with servers. On my previous image I could open a webserver on a server that was accessible via the openvpn tunnel. Now with a separate instance of Firefox, this isn’t possible and the browser doesn’t run on top of the tunnel.
When I’m trying to install the Kali template this is the error I am getting. What should I do?

Hi, I’m trying to update a kali template in the Qube Manager. I’m getting the error message about libapt-pkg5.0 is not installed.
I’m not sure if you meant
sudo touch ~root/.hushlogin
or
sudo touch ~/.hushlogin
I tried both and I still can’t update through Qube Manager.
I can update/upgrade in the kali template in a terminal just fine but I’m still having missing sound and video playback issues that I hope an update will fix.
sorry I’m new and I don’t know where to find log files but maybe there’s an easy fix I don’t know about?
I just upgraded to 4.1. I can’t find the kali template. When i run sudo qubes-dom0-update --enablerepo=qubes-template-community-testing qubes-template-kali
I receive qvm-template error Template kali not found
hmm, then i dont know but you must specified template versions because when i try “kali” without -4.0.6-2021XXXXXX its not working.i dont say that to you i say for anyone try to download any template.
