Yay! :D

I have to admit, I moved the rest of my VMs over to it a day early (had
already been using debian-10 for a while on a few misc things).

Thanks to unman for keeping us up to date!

That is awesome! Concrete question: I have still debian-9-minimal's
running (for ex. for netvm), is there a new debian-buster-minimal
template in preparation (or already available, and I did not see it)?

Hi Bernhard,
in my case I just upgraded debian-9-minimal to debian-10-minimal, changing the name release from 'stretch' to 'buster' in /etc/apt/sources.list and /etc/apt/sources.list.d/qubes-r4.list . The upgrade process has been straightforward.

Here is a tutorial for upgrading from jessi to stretch http://qubesosfasa4zl44o4tws22di6kepyzfeqv3tg4e3ztknltfxqrymdad.onion/doc/template/debian/upgrade-8-to-9/

Hi Bernhard

There is indeed a debian-10-minimal.

As a general point, you can always check to see what's available by
running:
sudo qubes-dom0-update --action=search qubes-template

Or, to check testing, use:
sudo qubes-dom0-update --action=search --enable-repo=qubes-templates-itl-testing qubes-template

You'll see both debian-10 and debian-10-minimal in the testing repo.


I almost always grab a clean minimal template rather than updating an
existing one. Your choice

Perfect, thanks for your patience. These commands are not that
intuitive, and I need them once all three years, so I forget them.

Another question: my new buster-minimal-usb will "lock out" an external
mouse. It does acknowledge its existence by sys-usb:2.9-413c_3010
though. The stretch-minimal-usb template would have allowed the mouse to
work immediately. Now, I admit that the new behaviour is very safe, but
there should be a way to use a mouse, right? I could not find the answer
on qubes site (only some discussion that "lockout" should be automatic).
Can someone help, please?

Heads up on the debian-10 update error (with workaround):
