    <para>
      <literal>gnome</literal> alias has been removed along with
      <literal>gtk</literal>, <literal>gtkmm</literal> and several others.

      The attribute name of the Radicale daemon has been changed from

    <para>
      The Yama LSM is now enabled by default in the kernel,
      which prevents ptracing non-child processes.
      This means you will not be able to attach gdb to an existing process,
      but will need to start that process from gdb (so it is a child).
  </listitem>

  <listitem>
    <para>
      The <literal>stripHash</literal> bash function in <literal>stdenv</literal>
      changed according to its documentation; it now outputs the stripped name to
      <literal>stdout</literal> instead of putting it in the variable
      <literal>strippedName</literal>.
