Multiple other problems:
* do not run qvm-appmenus or qvm-sync-appmenus as root, this will create entries in other XDG_DATA_DIRS/XDG_DATA_HOME that cannot be deleted through the UI, which you have to delete manually * sometimes the list of available applications just keeps disappearing? I'm not sure what's doing this. qvm-sync-appmenus fixes it but I keep having to run it over and over. * entries in dmenu keep randomly all disappearing, being replaced by only Qube Settings. the whitelist files look fine, but they get deleted from the qubes-appmenus/applications directory * when I run many qvm-appmenus in parallel in my dom0 salt config, the stderr for some is getting output from other qvm-appmenus runs!?

Maybe there's some sort of race condition in qvm-appmenus?

Also a significant portion of the time, trying to launch an application from dmenu causes it to never start.

Also I'm getting System tray icons disappearing constantly, especially wifi:

I'm starting to regret thinking I could configure my system entirely idempotently with salt.

Nevermind, my problem was trying to run `qvm-appmenus` from sudo.

Still unfortunate there's no --get-default-whitelist though.

Hi, I'm trying to programmatically configure the appmenus for a dispvm template.

`qvm-appmenus --get-whitelist / --set-whitelist / --set-default-whitelist` seems out-of-sync with what I configure in Qube Manager, and neither --set-whitelist or --set-default-whitelist work for dispvm templates. I'm also confused why there's no `--get-default-whitelist`.

I considered just manually copying over the .desktop files, but the `apps.templates` directory is empty and doesn't populate when I run `qvm-sync-appmenus`. Are they put somewhere else?
