On my nth install of Qubes...and learning the hard way about passing informal scripts to others... :) A reminder if using the standard lvm config : the cloning of VMs/templates only ends up using additional storage for the *divergence* of each from the other(s). So, I'd recommend, if scripting for others: keep a pristine un-updated copy of the target template(s) to test scripts against. Even better would be a pristine copy and an "up-to-date but not customized" copy. E.g. debian-10 <- installed by qubes, developer *disables* automatic update reminders and does not update (frozen) debian-10-up-to-date <- cloned by developer, not customized, only ever apply updates debian-10-custom <- cloned by developer, apply customizations (e.g. apt-install stuff), apply updates. For day to day use with your VMs. That way one can (without having to remove and recreate templates via dom0 salt, dnf invocations, etc) test your scripts against baseline expectations of other users.
