Ubuntu 26.04 template

General Discussion
1

Ubuntu 26.04, resolute raccoon, has been released.

If any one wants to try it out, I’ve pushed a template:
https://qubes.3isec.org/Templates_4.3/

I’ve built Qubes packages and they are available at 3isec

Official packages will be available soon, but the build isn’t
yet straightforward so these are usable in the meantime.
The templates ship with the Qubes repository configured - you will need
to comment out the definition until those packages are built. If you
want to use the 3isec repo in the meantime, instructions for configuring
that repository are given.

Resolute leans on snap, so I have included the qubes-snap-helper. If you
want firefox you will need to snap install firefox in your qube.

I checked it now, and it looks quite promising!

Due to a change in resolute’s sudo-implementation, you will get errors trying to run sudo. This can be fixed by commenting out everything in /etc/sudoers.d/qubes.

I did not use the Qubes repositories, because otherwise apt update threw an error. Maybe this is the reason why passwordless root did not work. So I had to set a password for the user user manually, because an empty password was not accepted by sudo.

I hope these observations help a bit.

Thanks for feedback.
I believe you can just use su as ordinary Ubuntu.

I never presume to speak for the Qubes team.
When I comment in the Forum I speak for myself.
