Hm, this is not really the intended use of stateVersion. From the description:
Every once in a while, a new NixOS release may change
configuration defaults in a way incompatible with stateful
data. For instance, if the default version of PostgreSQL
changes, the new version will probably be unable to read your
existing databases. To prevent such breakage, you can set the
value of this option to the NixOS release with which you want
to be compatible. The effect is that NixOS will option
defaults corresponding to the specified release (such as using
an older version of PostgreSQL).
So this is only intended for options that have some corresponding on-disk state. AFAICT this is not the case for sound. In any case stateVersion is a necessary evil that only exists because we can't just upgrade Postgres databases or change SSH host keys. It's not necessary for things like whether sound is enabled. (If the user discovers that sound is suddenly disabled, they can just enable it.)
I had some vague recollection that we also had a configVersion option setting to control the defaults for non-state-related options, but I can't find it so maybe it was only discussed.
Use systemd to create the directory for UNIX socket. Also use localhost instead
of 127.0.0.1 as is done in default cupsd.conf so that IPv6 is enabled when
available.

We want to wait for both stacks to be active before declaring that network is active.
So either both default gateways must be specified or only IPv4 if IPv6 is disabled to
avoid dhcpcd for network-online.target.
When the znapzend module was enabled for the first time with pure =
true; then the list of previous entries is empty, but xargs still tried
to execute a znapzendzetup delete command with no arguments, which made
it fail
network-online.target properly depends on the underlying network
management tool (e.g. NixOS static configuration scripts, dhcpcd,
NetworkManager, networkd) signalling that all interfaces are up and
appropriately configured (to whatever degree possible/required), whereas
network.target only indicates that the network management tool itself
has started.
After the systemd 237 upgrade, radvd wouldn't start anymore because the
PID file cannot be written. It seems that directories in /run has to be
explicitely defined as RuntimeDirectory now. The PID file isn't needed
due to systemd, though, so it was removed along with forking and loggia
via syslog.
This fixes the ipv6 NixOS test.
Alertmanager 0.13.0 doesn't support single dash long options, so '-config.file'
for example is parsed as '-c', which leads to the service not starting.
Previously the parameters were just dropped. Now they can be read
from within the handler script. An example to show this is added.
Makes use of the new writeShellScript function as suggested in:
issue #21557
resolves: #21557
Inspired from the dhcpd service implementation
Only 2 configurations options at the moment:
- enabled
- path to config directory (defaults to /etc/raddb)
Implementation was also inspired from ArchLinux
systemd file and corrected with @dotlambda and
@fpletz help.
If you have more than 1 User with hasedPassword Option set it generates
```
rm -f /var/lib/mosquitto/passwd
touch /var/lib/mosquitto/passwd
echo 'user1:$6$xxx' > /var/lib/mosquitto/passwd
echo 'user2:$6$xxx' > /var/lib/mosquitto/passwd
```
Which ends up in only having 1 user.
l2tp saves its secrets into /etc/ipsec.d but strongswan would not read
them. l2tp checks for /etc/ipsec.secrets includes /etc/ipsec.d and if
not tries to write into it.
Solution:
Have the strongswan module create /etc/ipsec.d and /etc/ipsec.secrets
when networkmanager_l2tp is installed.
Include /etc/ipsec.secrets in
/nix/store/hash-strongswan/etc/ipsec.secrets so that it can find l2tp
secrets.
Also when the ppp 'nopeerdns' option is used, the DNS resolver tries to
write into an alternate file /etc/ppp/resolv.conf. This fails when
/etc/ppp does not exist so the module creates it by default.
* The environment variables NIX_CONF_DIR, NIX_BUILD_HOOK and
NIX_REMOTE are no longer needed.
* A /bin/sh (from busybox) is provided by default in sandboxes.
* Various options were renamed.
`services.postfix.config` is now correctly merged with the default attrset
specified in the module. Some options that are lists in postfix also
have to be lists in nix to be merged correctly. Other default options are
now set with `mkDefault` so they can be overridden via the module system.
This was only applicable to very specific hardware, and the only person
with an apparent interest in maintaining it (me) no longer uses the
hardware in question.
When a domain has a lot of subdomains, it is quite easy to hit the rate limit:
https://letsencrypt.org/docs/rate-limits/
Instead you can define the certificate manually in `security.acme.certs` and list the subdomains in the `extraDomains` option.
This makes memoization of Nixpkgs evaluation less effective, since
some Nixpkgs invocations may have 'config = {}' while others may have
'config = { xorg = {}; }'.
Instead set 'config = {}'.
This reverts commit 45c5a915980fbe1fa6f0ff80ab2d11b60b844d9e.
This breaks PredictableNetworkInterfaceNames on systems without networkd.
We should only include this file from systemd, when networkd is enabled.
in read-only way. If the cache directory is empty and you use the
very same service for system's DNS, kresd is unable to bootstrap root
trust anchors, as it would need a DNS lookup.
Also, if we don't rely on bootstrap, the extra lua deps of kresd could
be dropped by default, but let's not do that now, as the difference in
closure size is only ~4 MB, and there may be other use cases than
running the package as nixos service this way.
mate-control-center depends on mate-settings-daemon, but the later needs
gsettings schemas provided by the former. To fix this the gsettings schema
path from mate-control-center is added to XDG_DATA_DIRS at session
startup.
Udev changed its internal naming, so this rule file no longer applied correctly.
Therefore some properties such as network driver no longer matched in
systemd-networkd.
After updating we have more properties in systemd-networkd:
$ sudo networkctl status wlp3s0
...
Driver: iwlwifi
...
To prevent this in future, the file is no copied from systemd directly
The unnecessary dependency of sockets.target on kresd.service causes a
dependency cycle preventing kresd.service from starting at boot:
sockets.target -> kresd.service -> basic.target -> sockets.target
This allows to configure additional configuration files for Synapse. This way
secrets can be kept in a secure place on the file system without a need to go
through the Nix store.
before:
- /var/run/memcached is a bad default for a socket path, since its
parent directory must be writeable by memcached.
- Socket directory was not created by the module itself -> this was
left as a burden to the user?
- Having a static uid with a dynamic user name is not very useful.
after:
- Replace services.memcached.socket by a boolean flag. This simplifies
our code, since we do not have to check if the user specifies a
path with a parent directory that should be owned by memcached
(/run/memcached/memcached.sock -> /run/memcached).
- Remove fixed uid/gid allocation. The only file ever owned by the
daemon is the socket that will be recreated on every start.
Therefore user and group ids do not need to be static.
- only create the memcached user, if the user has not specified a
different one. The major use case for changing option is to allow
existing services (such as php-fpm) opening the local unix socket.
If we would unconditionally create a user that option would be
useless.
apps.plugin requires capabilities for full process monitoring. with
1.9.0, netdata allows multiple directories to search for plugins and the
setuid directory can be specified here.
the module is backwards compatible with older configs. a test is
included that verifies data gathering for the elevated privileges. one
additional attribute is added to make configuration more generic than
including configuration in string form.
Instead of polluting the environment with environment variables which
are inherited by processes spawned from awesome, use the command line
argument "--search" to add things to the search path.
cc #33169
This enables znapzend users to specify its full configuration through
NixOS options, without ever needing to use the stateful `znapzendzetup`
command.
This works by running znapzendzetup with the specified config in
ExecPre, just before the znapzend daemon is started.
There is also the `pure` option which will clear all previous znapzend setups,
making it as stateless as can get, as only the setup declared in
configuration.nix will be persisted.
This makes the commonHook option work also for (read-only) Nix store
paths. Currently it fails on the second activation, because the
destination is read-only.

feh is used to set background image for desktop managers that do not
support it directly, however there is no need to include it in PATH.
Fixes#17450.
Now there are separate `xfce4.xfce4mixer_pulse` and `xfce4.xfcevolumed_pulse` attributes for PulseAudio versions of these packages, instead of relying on Nixpkgs option. Mind that xfce4-volumed and xfce4-volumed-pulse are actually two separate programs without much overlap.
* Add options:
- enable
- davUser (default: "davfs2")
- davGroup (default: "davfs2)
* Add davfs2 user or group if they are not specified in the
configuration
In commit ec9dc73 restarting NetworkManager after resume from
suspend/hibernate was introduced.
When I initially switch to NixOS I started noticing a high delay between
wakeup and re-connecting to WiFi & wired networks. The delay increased
from a few seconds (on my previous distro, same software stack) to
almost half a minute with NixOS.
I (locally) applied the change in this commit a few weeks ago and tested
since then. The notebook/mobile device experience has improved a lot.
Reconnects are as before switching to NixOS.
Issue #24401 could be related to this. Since I am not using KDE/plasma5
I can only guess…
These packages will be placed into an environment using
`backendsToPackages`. This function explicitly maps backends to
`pkgs.nodePackages.${type}` unless it's a builtin. This ensures that only
valid backends that work on NixOS are used (if not, the build already
breaks at evaluation time).
The log will be redirected to `stdout` to be able to watch the entire
output using `journalctl`.
Configuration parameters for the backends need to be set using
`services.statsd.extraConfig` as each backend has its own options and
all of them shouldn't be validated and checked explicitly and manually.
