it's really easy to accidentally write the wrong systemd Exec* directive, ones
that works most of the time but fails when users include systemd metacharacters
in arguments that are interpolated into an Exec* directive. add a few functions
analogous to escapeShellArg{,s} and some documentation on how and when to use them.
The current logic assumes that everything that isn't a derivation is a
store path, but it can also be something that's *coercible* to a store
path, like a flake input.
Unnecessary uses of `lib.toDerivation` result in errors in pure evaluation
mode when `builtins.storePath` is disabled.
Also document what a `package` is.
Follow-up on https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/161426.
Explain why having legacy iptables rules installed can lead to confusing
firewall behaviour, and provide some guidance on how to fix this.
zsh-autosuggestions supports having fallback strategies expressed
through the ZSH_AUTOSUGGEST_STRATEGY array. For example,
`ZSH_AUTOSUGGEST_STRATEGY=(history completion)`. We should also support
this.
This type correctly merges multiple option types together while also
annotating them with file information. In a future commit this will be
used for `_module.freeformType`
Makes all options rendered in the manual throw an error if they don't
have a type specified.
This is a follow-up to #76184

This change probably wasn't documented sufficiently in the release
notes, neither the fact systemd stopped using iptables on its own in
case of nf_tables support.
Fixes#156041.
As explained in vpnc's Makefile, a vpnc with OpenSSL support is
non-redistributable. The option to enable OpenSSL support, which is
disabled by default, is even called OPENSSL_GPL_VIOLATION — something
that was conveniently hidden by the strange way the option was set in
the previous version of this package.
New ntopng version supports running as specified user. Create a separate
user for ntopng with a separate Redis instance.
Separate instance is only used for new `system.stateVersion`s to avoid
breaking existing setups. To configure that we add two new options,
`redis.address` and `redis.createInstance`. They can also be used to
specify your own Redis address.
The command in example is expected to be run from nixpkgs checkout, but
there's no explanation of this. Let's just use system nixpkgs: most
users will have it just working and those who use git checkouts will
figure it out.
After this change users with non-declarative configs need to set
`services.home-assistant.config` to an `null`, or their
`configuration.yaml` will be overwritten.
The reason for this is that with rfc42 style defaults the config
attribute set will never be empty by default.
--port and --address have both been deprecated and are nonfunctional
starting with kubernetes 1.23. Use --secure-port and --bind-address
instead. This means that users can no longer rely on the insecure port
for anything, so update the release notes accordingly.
Addresses #16545. Allows for user defined environment variables that
hold paths to wordlists. This is to allow for easy access to wordlists
for users and scripts, (in other distributions a convenient wordlist is
typically found in /usr/share/dict/words or similar). The default
wordlist is the one found in scowl, for no other reason than that's the
one that was mentioned in the linked issue.
It is possible to specify multiple environment variables as well. This
is for users who need multiple wordlists (such as multilingual users).
Adding a fake override function via passthru will at least give users of
the old override interface a more helpful error message. Additionally we
also document the changes in the changelog.

For the latter two, the feature flag useWayland was removed and a
wrapper script was provided.
The `nix.*` options, apart from options for setting up the
daemon itself, currently provide a lot of setting mappings
for the Nix daemon configuration. The scope of the mapping yields
convience, but the line where an option is considered essential
is blurry. For instance, the `extra-sandbox-paths` mapping is
provided without its primary consumer, and the corresponding
`sandbox-paths` option is also not mapped.
The current system increases the maintenance burden as maintainers have to
closely follow upstream changes. In this case, there are two state versions
of Nix which have to be maintained collectively, with different options
avaliable.
This commit aims to following the standard outlined in RFC 42[1] to
implement a structural setting pattern. The Nix configuration is encoded
at its core as key-value pairs which maps nicely to attribute sets, making
it feasible to express in the Nix language itself. Some existing options are
kept such as `buildMachines` and `registry` which present a simplified interface
to managing the respective settings. The interface is exposed as `nix.settings`.
Legacy configurations are mapped to their corresponding options under `nix.settings`
for backwards compatibility.
Various options settings in other nixos modules and relevant tests have been
updated to use structural setting for consistency.
The generation and validation of the configration file has been modified to
use `writeTextFile` instead of `runCommand` for clarity. Note that validation
is now mandatory as strict checking of options has been pushed down to the
derivation level due to freeformType consuming unmatched options. Furthermore,
validation can not occur when cross-compiling due to current limitations.
A new option `publicHostKey` was added to the `buildMachines`
submodule corresponding to the base64 encoded public host key settings
exposed in the builder syntax. The build machine generation was subsequently
rewritten to use `concatStringsSep` for better performance by grouping
concatenations.

SUID wrappers really shouldn't be enabled by default, unless a consumer
relies on them. So in my opinion this falls upon the desktop
environments if needed or a user to explicltly enable this if wanted.
Most desktop environments and services like CUPS already enable polkit
by default, that should really be sufficient.
Currently it's rather difficult to install tmux plugins. The process involves two steps:
1. Specify the correct `pkg.tmuxPlugins` package in `environment.systemPackages`
2. Adding to the configuration file to instantiate the plugin.
This commit allows the user to specify a list of plugins under `programs.tmux.plugins`.
