Related, has it been considered for qvm-run --pass-io to set or not set environment variable TERM? I wonder if the current implementation is correct. @marmarek

Since T503 is not yet implemented, Whonix 12 -> Whonix 13 are currently broken because of uwt. whonix-repository and tb-updater fails closed because the moment it uses gpg, /etc/uwt.d/30_uwt_default.conf does not exist, which results in "gpg" (actually uwt) failing. The solution I will be attempting is to make uwt also work with built-in defaults (part of T503).

Patrick added a comment to T57: implement rads (ram adjusted desktop starter) systemd unit.

Improved implementation. When there is enough RAM... On 'enter': instantly start login manager. On 'ctrl + c': instantly abort and do not start login manager. On 'timeout': start login manager. Thanks to 'dh_systemd_start --no-start' we can now use 'StandardInput=tty' and 'read' instead of 'systemd-ask-password'. Now we could even implement an interactive menu at boot (that allows to configure wait time and/or disabling rads). - https://phabricator.whonix.org/T57:
