## Backward Incompatibilities {#sec-release-21.11-incompatibilities}
- The `paperless` module and package have been removed. All users should migrate to the
successor `paperless-ng` instead. The Paperless project [has been
archived](https://github.com/the-paperless-project/paperless/commit/9b0063c9731f7c5f65b1852cb8caff97f5e40ba4)
and advises all users to use `paperless-ng` instead.
Users can use the `services.paperless-ng` module as a replacement while noting the following incompatibilities:
- `services.paperless.ocrLanguages` has no replacement. Users should migrate to [`services.paperless-ng.extraConfig`](options.html#opt-services.paperless-ng.extraConfig) instead:
```nix
{
services.paperless-ng.extraConfig = {
# Provide languages as ISO 639-2 codes
# separated by a plus (+) sign.
# https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ISO_639-2_codes
PAPERLESS_OCR_LANGUAGE = "deu+eng+jpn"; # German & English & Japanse
};
}
```
- If you previously specified `PAPERLESS_CONSUME_MAIL_*` settings in
`services.paperless.extraConfig` you should remove those options now. You
now *must* define those settings in the admin interface of paperless-ng.
- Option `services.paperless.manage` no longer exists.
Use the script at `${services.paperless-ng.dataDir}/paperless-ng-manage` instead.
Note that this script only exists after the `paperless-ng` service has been
started at least once.
- After switching to the new system configuration you should run the Django
management command to reindex your documents and optionally create a user,
if you don't have one already.
To do so, enter the data directory (the value of
`services.paperless-ng.dataDir`, `/var/lib/paperless` by default), switch
to the paperless user and execute the management command like below:
```
$ cd /var/lib/paperless
$ su paperless -s /bin/sh
$ ./paperless-ng-manage document_index reindex
# if not already done create a user account, paperless-ng requires a login
$ ./paperless-ng-manage createsuperuser
Username (leave blank to use 'paperless'): my-user-name
Email address: me@example.com
Password: **********
Password (again): **********
Superuser created successfully.
```
- The `staticjinja` package has been upgraded from 1.0.4 to 4.1.0

- `services.geoip-updater` was broken and has been replaced by [services.geoipupdate](options.html#opt-services.geoipupdate.enable).
- PHP 7.3 is no longer supported due to upstream not supporting this version for the entire lifecycle of the 21.11 release.
- Those making use of `buildBazelPackage` will need to regenerate the fetch hashes (preferred), or set `fetchConfigured = false;`.

[following upstream](https://github.com/dani-garcia/vaultwarden/discussions/1642). More specifically,
* `pkgs.bitwarden_rs`, `pkgs.bitwarden_rs-sqlite`, `pkgs.bitwarden_rs-mysql` and
`pkgs.bitwarden_rs-postgresql` were renamed to `pkgs.vaultwarden`, `pkgs.vaultwarden-sqlite`,
`pkgs.vaultwarden-mysql` and `pkgs.vaultwarden-postgresql`, respectively.
* Old names are preserved as aliases for backwards compatibility, but may be removed in the future.
* The `bitwarden_rs` executable was also renamed to `vaultwarden` in all packages.
* `pkgs.bitwarden_rs-vault` was renamed to `pkgs.vaultwarden-vault`.
* `pkgs.bitwarden_rs-vault` is preserved as an alias for backwards compatibility, but may be removed in the future.
* The static files were moved from `/usr/share/bitwarden_rs` to `/usr/share/vaultwarden`.
* The `services.bitwarden_rs` config module was renamed to `services.vaultwarden`.

- `yggdrasil` was upgraded to a new major release with breaking changes, see [upstream changelog](https://github.com/yggdrasil-network/yggdrasil-go/releases/tag/v0.4.0).
- `icingaweb2` was upgraded to a new release which requires a manual database upgrade, see [upstream changelog](https://github.com/Icinga/icingaweb2/releases/tag/v2.9.0).
- The `isabelle` package has been upgraded from 2020 to 2021
- the `mingw-64` package has been upgraded from 6.0.0 to 9.0.0
- `tt-rss` was upgraded to the commit on 2021-06-21, which has breaking changes. If you use `services.tt-rss.extraConfig` you should migrate to the `putenv`-style configuration. See [this Discourse post](https://community.tt-rss.org/t/rip-config-php-hello-classes-config-php/4337) in the tt-rss forums for more details.
- The following Visual Studio Code extensions were renamed to keep the naming convention uniform.
- `bbenoist.Nix` -> `bbenoist.nix`
- `CoenraadS.bracket-pair-colorizer` -> `coenraads.bracket-pair-colorizer`
- `golang.Go` -> `golang.go`
- `services.uptimed` now uses `/var/lib/uptimed` as its stateDirectory instead of `/var/spool/uptimed`. Make sure to move all files to the new directory.
- Deprecated package aliases in `emacs.pkgs.*` have been removed. These aliases were remnants of the old Emacs package infrastructure. We now use exact upstream names wherever possible.
- `programs.neovim.runtime` switched to a `linkFarm` internally, making it impossible to use wildcards in the `source` argument.
- The `openrazer` and `openrazer-daemon` packages as well as the `hardware.openrazer` module now require users to be members of the `openrazer` group instead of `plugdev`. With this change, users no longer need be granted the entire set of `plugdev` group permissions, which can include permissions other than those required by `openrazer`. This is desirable from a security point of view. The setting [`harware.openrazer.users`](options.html#opt-services.hardware.openrazer.users) can be used to add users to the `openrazer` group.
- The fontconfig service's dpi option has been removed.
Fontconfig should use Xft settings by default so there's no need to override one value in multiple places.
The user can set DPI via ~/.Xresources properly, or at the system level per monitor, or as a last resort at the system level with `services.xserver.dpi`.
- The `yambar` package has been split into `yambar` and `yambar-wayland`, corresponding to the xorg and wayland backend respectively. Please switch to `yambar-wayland` if you are on wayland.
- The `services.minio` module gained an additional option `consoleAddress`, that
configures the address and port the web UI is listening, it defaults to `:9001`.
To be able to access the web UI this port needs to be opened in the firewall.
- The `varnish` package was upgraded from 6.3.x to 6.5.x. `varnish60` for the last LTS release is also still available.
- The `kubernetes` package was upgraded to 1.22. The `kubernetes.apiserver.kubeletHttps` option was removed and HTTPS is always used.
- The attribute `linuxPackages_latest_hardened` was dropped because the hardened patches
lag behind the upstream kernel which made version bumps harder. If you want to use
a hardened kernel, please pin it explicitly with a versioned attribute such as
`linuxPackages_5_10_hardened`.
- The `nomad` package now defaults to a 1.1.x release instead of 1.0.x
- If `exfat` is included in `boot.supportedFilesystems` and when using kernel 5.7
or later, the `exfatprogs` user-space utilities are used instead of `exfat`.
- The `todoman` package was upgraded from 3.9.0 to 4.0.0. This introduces breaking changes in the [configuration file](https://todoman.readthedocs.io/en/stable/configure.html#configuration-file) format.
## Other Notable Changes {#sec-release-21.11-notable-changes}
- The setting [`services.openssh.logLevel`](options.html#opt-services.openssh.logLevel) `"VERBOSE"` `"INFO"`. This brings NixOS in line with upstream and other Linux distributions, and reduces log spam on servers due to bruteforcing botnets.
However, if [`services.fail2ban.enable`](options.html#opt-services.fail2ban.enable) is `true`, the `fail2ban` will override the verbosity to `"VERBOSE"`, so that `fail2ban` can observe the failed login attempts from the SSH logs.
- Sway: The terminal emulator `rxvt-unicode` is no longer installed by default via `programs.sway.extraPackages`. The current default configuration uses `alacritty` (and soon `foot`) so this is only an issue when using a customized configuration and not installing `rxvt-unicode` explicitly.
- `python3` now defaults to Python 3.9. Python 3.9 introduces many deprecation warnings, please look at the [What's New In Python 3.9 post](https://docs.python.org/3/whatsnew/3.9.html) for more information.
- `qtile` hase been updated from '0.16.0' to '0.18.0', please check [qtile changelog](https://github.com/qtile/qtile/blob/master/CHANGELOG) for changes.
- The `claws-mail` package now references the new GTK+ 3 release branch, major version 4. To use the GTK+ 2 releases, one can install the `claws-mail-gtk2` package.
- The wordpress module provides a new interface which allows to use different webservers with the new option [`services.wordpress.webserver`](options.html#opt-services.wordpress.webserver). Currently `httpd` and `nginx` are supported. The definitions of wordpress sites should now be set in [`services.wordpress.sites`](options.html#opt-services.wordpress.sites).
Sites definitions that use the old interface are automatically migrated in the new option. This backward compatibility will be removed in 22.05.
- The order of NSS (host) modules has been brought in line with upstream
recommendations:
- The `myhostname` module is placed before the `resolve` (optional) and `dns`
entries, but after `file` (to allow overriding via `/etc/hosts` /
`networking.extraHosts`, and prevent ISPs with catchall-DNS resolvers from
hijacking `.localhost` domains)
- The `mymachines` module, which provides hostname resolution for local
containers (registered with `systemd-machined`) is placed to the front, to
make sure its mappings are preferred over other resolvers.
- If systemd-networkd is enabled, the `resolve` module is placed before
`files` and `myhostname`, as it provides the same logic internally, with
caching.
- The `mdns(_minimal)` module has been updated to the new priorities.
If you use your own NSS host modules, make sure to update your priorities
according to these rules:
- NSS modules which should be queried before `resolved` DNS resolution should
use mkBefore.
- NSS modules which should be queried after `resolved`, `files` and
`myhostname`, but before `dns` should use the default priority
- NSS modules which should come after `dns` should use mkAfter.
- The [networking.wireless.iwd](options.html#opt-networking.wireless.iwd.enable) module has a new [networking.wireless.iwd.settings](options.html#opt-networking.wireless.iwd.settings) option.
- The [services.syncoid.enable](options.html#opt-services.syncoid.enable) module now properly drops ZFS permissions after usage. Before it delegated permissions to whole pools instead of datasets and didn't clean up after execution. You can manually look this up for your pools by running `zfs allow your-pool-name` and use `zfs unallow syncoid your-pool-name` to clean this up.
- Zfs: `latestCompatibleLinuxPackages` is now exported on the zfs package. One can use `boot.kernelPackages = config.boot.zfs.package.latestCompatibleLinuxPackages;` to always track the latest compatible kernel with a given version of zfs.
- Nginx will use the value of `sslTrustedCertificate` if provided for a virtual host, even if `enableACME` is set. This is useful for providers not using the same certificate to sign OCSP responses and server certificates.
- `lib.formats.yaml`'s `generate` will not generate JSON anymore, but instead use more of the YAML-specific syntax.
