Sorry, could you explain to me where the steps for morphing the debian-13-xfce template begin? I’m a bit confused; this is my first time doing a morphing.
Install Kicksecure inside Debian 1 step here (Prerequisites)? or here Install Kicksecure inside Debian (Installation)?
sudo/root will be available only in the template if I install sysmaint into the debian‑13‑xfce template after morphing? sysmaint - System Maintenance User
I have Kicksecure tamplate installed. I just want to morph debian-13-xfce template, and I’d like to know where to start.
By the way, will the AppArmor profiles for all browsers from Browser Choice also be installed to debian-13-xfce after morphing?
The instructions for distribution morphing a debian-13-xfce ticket are in the provided link.
After opening the page, click the highlighted tab button to show the instructions.
Oh yes sorry. @Patrick @arraybolt3 thanks!
Follow the instructions Install Kicksecure inside Debian, choose meta package
kicksecure-qubes-cliorkicksecure-qubes-gui.
@arraybolt3 1 step - Install Kicksecure inside Debian #Installation > kicksecure-qubes-cli
or 1 step - #Prerequisites? (apt install --no-install-recommends sudo adduser ….)
or #Prerequisites for debian host only?
Sorry if I’m asking stupid questions
It’s probably best to read the entire procedure through from the beginning to the end before attempting to do the steps. The proper place at which to install the metapackage is documented in the distribution morphing instructions.
(I do see some package names listed in one of the pages are outdated, I’ll fix that real quick.)
I’m stuck on this command
user@debian-13-xfce:~$ sudo apt install --no-install-recommends kicksecure-qubes-server
Solving dependencies…
Error! Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming. The following information may help to resolve the situation:
Unsatisfied dependencies: kicksecure-qubes-cli : Depends: firmware-nonfreedom-network but it is not installable Error: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
Error: The following information from --solver 3.0 may provide additional context: Unable to satisfy dependencies.
Reached two conflicting decisions:
1. kicksecure-qubes-cli:amd64 is selected for install because: 1. kicksecure-qubes-server:amd64=3:35.6-1 is selected for install
2. kicksecure-qubes-server:amd64 Depends kicksecure-qubes-cli 2. kicksecure-qubes-cli:amd64 Depends firmware-nonfreedom-network but none of the choices are installable: [no choices]
Here are all my actions:
sudo su
apt install --no-install-recommends sudo adduser
/usr/sbin/adduser user sudo
reboot
/usr/sbin/addgroup --system console
/usr/sbin/adduser user console
sudo apt install console-data console-common kbd keyboard-configuration
sudo apt install extrepo
sudo http_proxy=http://127.0.0.1:8082 https_proxy=http://127.0.0.1:8082 extrepo enable kicksecure
sudo apt update
sudo apt install --no-install-recommends kicksecure-qubes-server
Did you enable the non-free repo when you got to the Add the Kicksecure Repository step, as is documented there? That repository must be enabled. firmware-nonfreedom-network is in Kicksecure’s non-free repo because the firmware packages it depends on from Debian’s non-free-firmware repo are not free-and-open-source (though they are free of charge).
@arraybolt3 Yes (I forgot to paste this command on the forum).
I tried install cli-version again, and the same error keeps appearing. Here’s the screenshot
user@debian-13-xfce-clone-1:~$ sudo apt install extrepo
extrepo is already the newest version (0.14).
The following package was automatically installed and is no longer required:
libplymouth5
Use 'sudo apt autoremove' to remove it.

The answer is in the last ~ 4 lines of of file /etc/extrepo/config.yaml.
enabled_policies:
- main
# - contrib
# - non-free
The two # need to be commented in. Documentation will be updated.
Wiki has been updated.
Now it works! Thank you!
Thank you for the confirmation!
This is also considered a packaging bug. Will be fixed in version 18.1.2.6 and above.
The dependency on firmware-nonfreedom-network has been removed. Therefore, in the future, distribution morophing will no longer rely on editing /etc/extrepo/config.yaml.
