Qubes OS version:

R4.0

Affected component(s):

dom0


Steps to reproduce the behavior:

In dom0's Terminal use qvm-copy.

Expected behavior:

Both qvm-copy and qvm-copy-to-vm to be installed in dom0
qvm-copy should give you a popup to select the Qube you want to send the files to.

Actual behavior:

qvm-copy is not installed.

General notes:

If it is intentional to not have qvm-copy in dom0, then the qvm-copy command needs to display this message:
qvm-copy is blocked in the dom0, please use qvm-copy-to-vm instead.

Added dummy qvm-move/qvm-copy do dom0
While qvm-move and qvm-copy cannot work in dom0, their
absence is confusing. Thus, stub tools that output message
informing the user that these tools are unavailable and
qvm-move-to-vm/qvm-copy-to-vm should be used instead.
