Continuing the discussion from Qubes OS 4.2.0-rc1 is available for testing:

From this link it seems to be based on debian:

freedomofpress/qubes-template-securedrop-workstation/blob/main/securedrop-workstation.conf#L18


      
          
          
# Remote info for build. The repo and branch must be publicly available
          # (so you'll need to push to remote) in order for the build to work.
          # While debugging, consider setting this to a personal fork, so you can
          # iterate quickly.
          # GIT_URL_template_securedrop_workstation = https://github.com/conorsch/qubes-template-securedrop-workstation
          # BRANCH_template_securedrop_workstation ?= bullseye-support-1
          GIT_URL_template_securedrop_workstation = https://github.com/freedomofpress/qubes-template-securedrop-workstation
          BRANCH_template_securedrop_workstation ?= main
          
          
BUILDER_PLUGINS += builder-debian
          BUILDER_PLUGINS += template-securedrop-workstation
          USE_QUBES_REPO_VERSION = 4.1
          # TEMPLATE_ONLY - Only build templates
          # Set 1 to only build template or clear the value for a full build
          # Default: novalue
          TEMPLATE_ONLY ?= 1
          # Release Version
          # 2 - Release 2
          # 3 - Release 3
          # Default: 3

But I think they also use whonix in some parts.
