Without this option all changes done with Caddy API are lost after reboot.
Current service is not supporting Caddy --resume parameter. There is reference to original unit https://github.com/caddyserver/dist/blob/master/init/caddy.service which also mentions --resume and that it should be used if new Caddy API will be used.
The problem behind this is that the hardened patchset[1]. Quite recently
this led to a weird problem when Linux 5.12 was dropped (and thus had to
be removed from `nixpkgs`), there were no patches for 5.13, so
`linuxPackages_hardened_latest` had to be downgraded to 5.10 as base[2]
which may be rather unintuitive and unexpected.
To avoid these kind of "silent downgrades" in the future, it makes sense
to drop the attribute entirely. If somebody wants to use a hardened
kernel, it's better to explicitly pin it using the newly introduced
versioned attributes, e.g. `linuxPackages_4_14_hardened`.

The wpa_supplicant service in the NixOS installer is unusable because
the control socket is disabled and /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf ignored.
The manual currently recommends manually starting the daemon and using
wpa_passphrase, but this requires figuring out the interface name,
driver and only works for WPA2 personal networks.
By enabling the control socket, instead, a user can configure the
network via wpa_cli (or wpa_gui in the graphical installer), which
support more advanced network configurations.
Most desktop environments manage the cursor using the Xcursor library
by default; this comes with scalable or multiple-sized cursor themes.
However, when running just a simple WM (twm, bspwm, ...) the cursor
handling is left to the X server, which uses a very simple fixed bitmap
font (this is called a "core" cursor). The font is uncomfortably small
on a high DPI display and must be replaced with a saner default.
Up until recently[1] it used to be possible to change the font on the
xserver command line, however the font name is now hardcoded. It's still
possible to change it, though: here I override the `fontcursormisc`
package and set an alias that points to a vector variant of the original
cursor font. The font size is set to match the standard cursor
dimensions on a 96dpi display. It's not perfect but it's a very simple
and effective solution.

The paperless project has moved on to paperless-ng and the original
paperless package in Nixpkgs has stopped working recently (due to
version incompatibility with the providede Django package).
Instead of investing more time into the old module we should migrate all
users to the new module instead.
This is the case when the test-script is empty. `nixos-build-vms(8)` is
primarily supposed to be used as tool to test changes or to reproduce
bugs (IMHO) where "just spinning up a few VMs" is the primary use-case.
In the ongoing discussion about these changes[1] it was suggested to
only expose it when needed (i.e. in the case I described above) to keep
the API surface as slim as possible.

This sets up a different systemd service for each interface. This way
each wpa_supplicant instance waits for his inteface to become ready
using the respective device unit, and that only. The configuration file
is still shared between all instances, though.
This closes a longstanding "fixme" from cbfba81.
This is relevant for `nixos-build-vms(8)` which doesn't have a
test-script. In that case it's more intuitive to directly go into the
interactive mode which is IMHO more intuitive.
The generated json configuration returns this warning:
the 'issuer' field is deprecated and will be removed in the future; use 'issuers' instead
Updated the config to use "issuers" instead of "issuer"
Also, now it's possible to set the ca option null to not inject
automatically any ca. This is useful if you don't want to generate any
certificates or if you want to define a more fine-graned ca config
manually (e.g.: use different ca per domain)
Previously, for processes launched by doas the unwrapped doas binary preceded the
setuid-wrapped doas binary in PATH.
This caused error `doas: not installed setuid` when running doas from
processes launched by doas.
doas seems to short-circuit the PATH lookup when called like
`doas -u myuser doas -u myuser ...` so the error doesn't appear in this case.
- Add an option to automatically launch a scan when the
signal of the current network is low
- Enable 802.11r (fast access point transition) by default for all
protected networks
I may have finally found a clean solution to the issues[1][2][3] with
the automatic discovery of wireless network interfaces.

Currently the start script fails right away if no interface is available
by the time it's running, possibly leaving the system without network.
This happens when running a little early in the boot. A solution is to
instead wait for at least one interface to appear before scanning the
/sys/class/net/ directory. This is done here by listening for the right
udev events (from the net/wlan subsystem) using the `udevadm monitor`
command and grep to match its output.
This methods guarantees the availability of at least one interface to
wpa_supplicant, but won't add additional interfaces once it has started.
However, if the current interface is lost, say unplugged, the service is
automatically stopped and will be restarted as soon as a one (not
necessarily the same) is detected. It would be possible make this fully
dynamic by running another service that continously listen for udev
events and manages the main wpa_supplicant daemon, but this is probably
overkill.
I tested the following cases:
- one interface, starting at boot, w/o predictable naming scheme
- two interfaces, starting at boot (intel wireless and a usb adapter),
w/o predictable naming scheme
- one interface after the system booted, w/o predictable naming scheme
- two interfaces after the system booted, w/o predictable naming scheme
- unplugging and plugging back the current interface
I expect it suffices that the channel only blocks on one firefox ESR
test - the one for the default ESR. I didn't want to have the
information about the default in two places, so either of the tests will
be evaluated twice (but to the same *.drv I hope).
Analogous to 6325d15e90.
The test certificate expiration date was set to the default 30 days.
This certificate is generated through its own derivation. As with
every derivation, it gets cached by cache.nixos.org once we build it.
In practice, we rebuild this derivation only if one of its input
changes. The only inputs here being openssl and stdenv.
While it's not an issue on the unstable branches, it can be
problematic on a stable release: the test will fail after 30 days.
Extending the certificate lifespan from 1 month to 100 years to prevent
it from getting expired while being cached.
There is no generic services.kea.enable option. Instead kea consists of
four daemons (dhcp4, dhcp6, ddns, ctrlagent) that can be enabled
individually. In this test we're just looking at dhcp6.
This change makes it so that accessing config.users.groups.*.members isn't
empty by default, but instead contains all the users whose `extraGroups`
includes that group, allowing fancy things like
{ config, ... }: {
users.groups.libvirt.members = config.users.groups.wheel.members;
}
to add all users in the wheel group to the libvirt group
Some ACME providers (like Buypass) are using a different certificate
to sign OCSP responses than for server certificates. Therefore,
sslTrustedCertificate should be provided by the user and we need to
allow that.
* Previously, both the xorg and wayland backend were built into the yambar
package. The refactor breaks up each backends to its separate, with xorg
being the default. Thus yambar users on wayland should switch to the
yambar-wayland package.
For security reasons, and generally, it is best to create a more fine
grained group than plugdev. This way users that wish to tweak razer
devices don't have access to the entire plugdev group's permissions.
This is of course a breaking change.

for more context.
Nullmailer expects that this directory exists (see
073f4e9c5d/doc/nullmailer-send.8 (L185)).
When it doesn't and an email cannot be sent due to a permanent failure
or has been in the queue longer than queuelifetime (7 days), message
"Can't rename file: No such file or directory" starts appearing in the
log and nullmailer never sends "Could not send message" notification.
This means that the user may never learn that his email was not
delivered.
Previously the driver was configured exclusively through convoluted
environment variables.
Now the driver's defaults are configured through env variables.
Some additional concerns are in the github comments of this PR.

This option allows basic configuration of the compression technique
used in the backup script. Specifically it adds `none` and `zstd` as
new alternatives, keeping `gzip` as the default.
The service likes to write files uploaded by the user to the service
user's $HOME. In our case the hqplayerd user has no home directory,
since it's a system user, and regardless we'd like to keep the service's
state contained.
With this change the unit forces HOME to point to
/var/lib/hqplayer/home, which works around the issue.
so the underlaying use case of the preceding commit is so
generic, that we gain a lot in reasoning to give it an
appropriate name.
As the comment states:
image media needs to override host config short of mkForce
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/131760 was made to avo
a speicific configuration conflict that errored out for multiple definitions of "/" when the installer where overlayed
on any existing host configuration.
---
Problem 1: It turns out that in also other mountpoints can coflict.
Solution 1: use `mkOverride 60` for all mountpoints (even for the ones unlikely causing confilct for consistency sake)
---
Problem 2: It turns out that on an installation media for a fresh machine (before formatting), we usually don't have any devices yet formatted. However defining for example `fileSystems.<nme>.device = "/dev/disk/by-label/...", in newer versions of nixos, seems to make the system startup fail. Similarily waiting for a non-existent swap device does not make the startup fail, but has a 1:30 min timeout.
Solution 2: For an installation medium, soft-override ("unless users know what they are doing") the entire `fileSystems` and `swapDevices` definitions.
Starting in v1.10.4, go-ethereum changed the default sync mode to snap
sync. This adds "snap" as one of valid types of syncmode and updates
`services.geth.syncmode` to use it by default instead of the previous
fast sync.
GDM 40.1 switched from storing X11 sessions in the "XSession" property
on AccountService to "Session" with a "x11" "SessionType".
For compatibility reasons, we should set both, since AccountService
doesn't seem to provide the compatibility for us.
Before this commit, the `flake` option was typed with `types.unspecified`.
This type get's merged via [`mergeDefaultOption`](ebb592a04c/lib/options.nix (L119-L128)), which has a line
```nix
else if all isFunction list then x: mergeDefaultOption loc (map (f: f x) list)
```
`lib.isFunction` detects an attrs in the shape of `{__functor = ...}` as
a function and hence this line substitutes such attrs with a function
(f: f x).
If now, a flake input has a `__functor` as it's output, this will
coerce the once attrs to a function. This breaks a lot of things later
in the stack, for example a later `lib.filterAttrs seive <LAMBDA>` will
fail for obious reasons.
According to @infinisil, `types.unspecified` is due to deprecation. In
the meantime this PR provides a specific fix for the specific problem
discovered.
The main goal of this commit is to replace the rather fragile passing of
multiple arrays which could break in cases like #130935.
While I could have just added proper shell escaping to the variables
being passed, I opted for the more painful approach of replacing the
fragile and somewhat strange construct with the 5 bash lists. While
there are currently no more problems present with the current approach
(at least none that I know of), the new approach seems more solid and
might get around problems that could arise in the future stemming from
either the multiple-lists situation or from the absence of proper shell
quoting all over the script.
This allows the user to manually specify the addresses nginx shoud
listen on, while still having the convinience to use the *SSL options
and have the ports automatically applied
systemd-coredump tries to drop privileges to a systemd-coredump user if
present (and falls back to the root user if it's not available).
Create that user, and recycle uid 151 for it. We don't really care about
the gid.
Fixes https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/120803.
the use of python further restricts possible RFC1035 host labels since
dash is not allowed for use in python identifiers.
The previous implementation of this check was flawed, since it did not
check the `hostName` value that is actually used to construe the
identifier, but the node name, which can be anything, e.g. just `machine`.
The previous implementation, by further restricting RFC1035 labels, only
for the sake of testing seems to be an unacceptable restriction and should
be addressed separately.
installer media can be used on top of existing host configs. In such
scenarions, root fs types will already be defined.
Before this change, this will inevitably lead to the following error:
```console
error: The option `fileSystems./.fsType' has conflicting definition values:
- In `/nix/store/2nl5cl4mf6vnldpbxhrbzfh0n8rsv9fm-source/DevOS/os/hardware/common.nix': "ext4"
- In `/nix/store/jbch90yqx6gg1h3fq30jjj2b6h6jfjgs-source/nixos/modules/installer/cd-dvd/iso-image.nix': "tmpfs"
```
With this patch, the installers will override those values according to
their own local requirement.
Use `mkOverride 60` so that conscientious overriding specially targeted
at the installer, e.g. with `mkForce` is still straight forward.
