Packages built with `haskellPackages.callHackage` won't be rebuilt when
updating `all-cabal-hashes`.
The removed comment was keeping a reference to the `cabal2nix` call,
which itself depends on `all-cabal-hashes`, in order to keep this file
during a garbage collection.
The tradeoff is between:
- The current behavior: a mass rebuild, any change of `all-cabal-hashes`
triggers a rebuild of all the packages built with `callHackage` and
packages which depend on them. This can take hours, and may happen
after a "small" unrelated change (i.e. an user is bumping
`all-cabal-hashes` in order to use a new package from hackage). It
also have global impacts in a project (long rebuild in CI, new entries
in cache, developers need to fetch the new entries, ...). In this
context, `cabal2nix` entries are not garbage collected.
- The new behavior: No mass rebuild, but `cabal2nix` derivations need to
be recomputed after a garbage collection. This is usually fast (a few
seconds by call), linear with the number of calls and should not
happen a lot (i.e. users are not garbage collecting everyday).
See https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/194751 for details.
This also removes automatic enablement/mounting of instance store swap
devices and ext3 filesystems. This behaviour is strongly opinionated
and shouldn't be enabled by default.
The unionfs behaviour never took effect anyway, because the AMI
manifest path only exists for instance store-backed AMIs, which have
not been supported by nixpkgs since
84742e2293 (2019).
Enabling Wayland support by default prevents use of XWayland on Wayland
systems, while correctly falling back to X11 when Wayland is
unavailable in the current session.
With the current packaging many people unnecessarily rely on the
`firefox` attribute, which is suggested by nixos-generate-config, which
in turn makes their Firefox use XWayland, when it shouldn't, which
causes bugs with GNOME on Wayland:
https://discourse.nixos.org/t/firefox-all-black-when-first-launched-after-login/21143
Using the Wayland-enabled Firefox was tested on pure X11 systems by
contributors on the #nix-mozilla:nixos.org room and we are confident
this change will not cause severe regressions.
Even better, people can now toggle `MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=<0|1>` in their
environment to override this decision, should they feel the need to do
so.
The `sparseCheckout` argument allows the user to specify directories or
patterns of files, which Git uses to filter files it should check-out.
Git expects a multi-line string on stdin ("newline-delimited list", see
`git-sparse-checkout(1)`), but within nixpkgs it is more consistent to
use a list of strings instead. The list elements are joined to a
multi-line string only before passing it to the builder script.
A deprecation warning is emitted if a (multi-line) string is passed to
`sparseCheckout`, but for the time being it is still accepted.
The nixos-generate-config command mentioned in the manual fails with error:
nixos-generate-config: no need to specify `/` with `--root`, it is the default
This was introduced in 611b8c4472
(#161034). Now, the command should be called without any arguments.
Relative paths are interpreted relative to the working directory, which
is currently unset and thus defaults to `/`. However we want to change
the working directory in a future release such that relative paths are
interpreted relative to `/var/lib/syncthing`.
Upon testing the change itself I realized that it doesn't build properly
because
* the `pname` of a php extension is `php-<name>`, not `<name>`.
* calling the extension `openssl-legacy` resulted in PHP trying to compile
`ext/openssl-legacy` which broke since it doesn't exist:
source root is php-8.1.12
setting SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH to timestamp 1666719000 of file php-8.1.12/win32/wsyslog.c
patching sources
cdToExtensionRootPhase
/nix/store/48mnkga4kh84xyiqwzx8v7iv090i7z66-stdenv-linux/setup: line 1399: cd: ext/openssl-legacy: No such file or directory
I didn't encounter that one before because I was mostly interested in
having a sane behavior for everyone not using this "feature" and the
documentation around this. My findings about the behavior with turning
openssl1.1 on/off are still valid because I tested this on `master` with
manually replacing `openssl` by `openssl_1_1` in `php-packages.nix`.
To work around the issue I had to slightly modify the extension
build-system for PHP:
* The attribute `extensionName` is now relevant to determine the output
paths (e.g. `lib/openssl.so`). This is not a behavioral change for
existing extensions because then `extensionName==name`.
However when specifying `extName` in `php-packages.nix` this value is
overridden and it is made sure that the extension called `extName` NOT
`name` (i.e. `openssl` vs `openssl-legacy`) is built and installed.
The `name` still has to be kept to keep the legacy openssl available
as `php.extensions.openssl-legacy`.
Additionally I implemented a small VM test to check the behavior with
server-side encryption:
* For `stateVersion` below 22.11, OpenSSL 1.1 is used (in `basic.nix`
it's checked that OpenSSL 3 is used). With that the "default"
behavior of the module is checked.
* It is ensured that the PHP interpreter for Nextcloud's php-fpm
actually loads the correct openssl extension.
* It is tested that (encrypted) files remain usable when (temporarily)
installing OpenSSL3 (of course then they're not decryptable, but on a
rollback that should still be possible).
Finally, a few more documentation changes:
* I also mentioned the issue in `nextcloud.xml` to make sure the issue
is at least mentioned in the manual section about Nextcloud. Not too
much detail here, but the relevant option `enableBrokenCiphersForSSE`
is referenced.
* I fixed a few minor wording issues to also give the full context
(we're talking about Nextcloud; we're talking about the PHP extension
**only**; please check if you really need this even though it's
enabled by default).
This is because I felt that sometimes it might be hard to understand
what's going on when e.g. an eval-warning appears without telling where
exactly it comes from.
* s/NextCloud/Nextcloud/g
* `enableBrokenCiphersForSSE` should be enabled by default for any NixOS
installation from before 22.11 to make sure existing installations
don't run into the issue. Not the other way round.
* Update release notes to reflect on that.
* Improve wording of the warning a bit: explain which option to change
to get rid of it.
* Ensure that basic tests w/o `enableBrokenCiphersForSSE` run with
OpenSSL 3.
Allow building other than Legacy-BIOS-only Proxmox images.
Default is unchanged.
To build UEFI proxmox image use:
proxmox.qemuConf.bios = "ovmf";
(default is "seabios")
To build image bootable using both "seabios" and "ovmf" use:
partitionTableType = "hybrid";
BIOS can be switched in Proxmox between "seabios" and "ovmf" and VM still boots.
(GRUB2-only, systemd-boot does not boot under "seabios")
To build systemd-boot UEFI image:
proxmox.qemuConf.bios = "ovmf";
boot.loader.systemd-boot.enable = true;
Support will be dropped on 01 Jan 2023[1]. Normally we'd keep it around
until then, but considering that it's an LTS kernel it may be better to
do it before 22.11 to make sure there are no unpleasant surprises.
Closes#199933

Percona Server for MySQL 5.6 is no more maintained due to the EOL of MySQL 5.6.
See https://www.percona.com/downloads/Percona-Server-5.6/LATEST/.
A bit hard to list all the potential security issues affecting it but CVE-2021-27928
should be one of them.
- Update download URLs
- Replace "USB stick"/"USB Drive" with "USB flash drive" as that seem more correct
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USB_flash_drivehttps://elementary.io/docs/installation#choose-operating-system
- Don't mention CD as easiest option anymore,
as all modern systems should be able to boot from USB,
but many don't have a CD drive. Burning CDs is also usually wasteful as you
can't burn them again.
- Remove link to NixOS Wiki (Making_the_installation_media) as it is not needed
- Add Etcher and USBImager as graphical tools to create install drive
- Make dd command consistent and use block size of 4 MB for faster flashing
- More consistent text
- Add instructions for "Booting from the install medium"
Inspired by 9a91b0f495/docs/installation.md (booting-from-the-install-drive-booting-from-the-installation-medium-clear-float-2)
- Add instructions for "Graphical Installation"
- Restructure headings and anchors for "Manual Installation"
- Adding legacy anchors for "Manual Installation" to not break links

This will add `passthru.schema_version` to be used as default value for
the adguardhome module.
It will also update the `update.sh` to keep the `schema_version` in sync
with the version by inspecting the sourcecode.
This might break existing configs, if they use deprecated values that don't
appear in newer schema_versions and schema_version wasn't set explicitly.
Explicit declarations of schema_version always have higher priority.
This also removes the `host` and `config` settings in favour of using the
appropriate `settings`.

- Previously PolyMC's removal was counted as a release highlight
- It probably shouldn't be, as it's more a notable change rather than a
highlight
- Thanks @Ma27 for noticing this
This commit refactors `services.grafana.provision.datasources` towards
the RFC42 style. To preserve backwards compatibility, we have to jump
through a ton of hoops, introducing esoteric type signatures and bizarre
structs. The Grafana module definition should hopefully become a lot
cleaner after a release cycle or two once the old configuration style is
completely deprecated.

- Previously PolyMC was the suggested replacement for MultiMC
- As PolyMC is marked as insecure and prismlauncher is a replacement,
this commit suggests using it instead
The actual p4 command is open-source software released under the
2-clause BSD license, so we can build it here (for pretty much every
architecture we support!) and include it in the cache.
This change removes the server-side commands from this package, but they
are now available as part of a separate p4d package instead. (The server
package remains unfree.)
As an added bonus, we can also include the libraries and headers for the
C/C++ API, which will allow us to package any software that uses
Perforce as a library in the future.
This binary was provided by the `cosign` package until now but it is in
the process of being removed, see https://github.com/sigstore/cosign/pull/2019
Since it might be removed during the 22.11 cycle we drop it
preventively. This will make possible security backports easier if we
need them.
Deprecate haskell.lib{,.compose}.generateOptparseApplicativeCompletion*
in favor of the newly added
haskell.packages.*.generateOptparseApplicativeCompletions (plural!)
which takes into account whether we are cross-compiling or not. If we
are, generating completions is disabled, since we can't execute software
built for a different platform.
The move is necessary, so we can receive the /same/ stdenv as the
package we are overriding in order to accurately check whether we can
execute produced binaries.
Resolves#174040.
Resolves#49648.
This caused too many downstream projects to break, so we are reverting
this change for now, until further transition fixes are in place.
