Description

TODO abstract:

Make sure Qubes-Whonix-Workstation can be used as DispVM.

TODO specific:

whonixcheck is already working in a Qubes-Whonix-Workstation DispVM in the Whonix 13 development version. Apparently the Qubes upstream issue home folder of template not inherited by DispVM is the only thing preventing this.

History:

Thanks to the help of @marmarek two issues preventing this were already fixed.

no longer write to home folder directly; use /etc/skel:T419
up to date versions of Tor Browsers in newly created AppVMs inherited from updated TemplateVMs: T417
