Hey there,
According to KickSecure docs, open-link-confirmation is enabled by default.
I have Kicksecure installed on bare metal, and open-link-confirmation is installed, but the applet does not appear.
I cannot find any documentation on how to properly enable it.
How should I go about this?
Thanks!

Thanks for the report!
This should work by default. I need to investigate this…
related source code if somebody else likes to have a look:
FWIW a lot of things don’t work quite right out of the box, especially if all you install is kicksecure-xfce
.
I found this package list much more useful for converting Debian to Kicksecure on bare-metal: kicksecure-xfce apparmor-profiles-kicksecure desktop-config-dist kicksecure-desktop-applications-recommended kicksecure-desktop-applications-xfce kicksecure-desktop-environment-essential-xfce kicksecure-xfce-host
I’m sure there are some things in the list that are redundant, I haven’t had a chance to deduplicate them.

This one (which was posted later) could be a duplicate:
Since we dont have a default browser by default so any user who is morphing debian fresh install he will not have a browser as well (specially debian minimal version like netinst or CD…etc).
This will give annoying show annoying bug:

Will show a bug window which you need to press on OK multiple times to disappear:

[havingnobrowser2]
2
[havingnobrowser3]
3
[havingnobrowser4]
4
[havingnobrowser5]
5
[havingnobrowser6]
For solution, could you please have a look here?
Root cause is that meta package kicksecure-desktop-applications-recommended isn’t installed.
That package would ensure that the dependency package repository-dist-wizard gets installed.
I’ve updated the installation instructions just now:
Here’s the change:
Debian: Difference between revisions - Kicksecure
In short: the documentation on which meta package to install has been updated.

Btw as for the packages… As long as Kicksecure doesn’t have something like packages.debian.org APT package repository web interface for deb.whonix.org - Development - Whonix Forum to auto document the packages better… You might be interested to look into this source file. It has all the meta packages.
