Hi!
I’ve been experimenting with Kicksecure template and noticed something interesting. I’m currently using the Kicksecure template provided by @unman (thanks to him!), and it works great, updates come through the Qubes Update Manager seamlessly.
Out of curiosity, I also tried distro-morphing my own Kicksecure template from a Debian minimal base, following the instructions on the Kicksecure site.
Here’s what I observed: with @unman ’s template, I get Kicksecure template updates directly via the Qubes updater. But with my distro-morphed version, I don’t see any Kicksecure-specific updates in the Qubes Update Manager, only Debian template updates show up.
Why is this happening? Is there a way I can set up my own distro-morphed Kicksecure template to receive updates through the Qubes Update Manager, just like unman’s? I’d love to understand the mechanics here and whether it’s practical to replicate that behavior myself.
Regards!
