I am using Qubes OS, and just installed whonix-workstation-17 from the community templates (Qubes Menu → Qubes Tools → Qubes Template Manager → whonix-workstation-17 → Install → Apply). After installation, I booted up the “whonix-workstation-17 template” and tried to update and upgrade my applications with in xfce terminal:
sudo apt update && sudo apt install myapplication
Here is the output from it:
zsh: permission denied: sudo
zsh: exit 126 sudo su
So it turns out on a freshly installed template, I don’t have permissions to use sudo. sudo su returns the exact same message. I though I might have downloaded a corrupted whonix-workstation-17 image, so I removed it, and then downloaded it again and tried using sudo or sudo su, with the exact same results:
zsh: permission denied: sudo
zsh: exit 126 sudo su
So on a fresh install inside of Qubes, I cannot use sudo in whonix-workstation-17. Why is this happening, and how can I get sudo to work in my whonix-workstation-17?
Please help.
