When using extlinux-conf-builder in a nix build using chroots, the
following error message could be seen:
/nix/store/XXX-extlinux-conf-builder.sh: line 121: cd: /nix/var/nix/profiles: No such file or directory
To avoid this, just skip the code path parsing /nix/var/nix/profiles
when $numGenerations (passed from the command line) is 0 (which is the
only legal value of $numGenerations in a nix build context).
Without a menu title, U-Boot's distro scripts just autoboot the first
entry by default.
When I initially wrote this, my board wasn't apparently running stock
U-Boot but had some local hacks saved in the U-Boot's environment
which made it always display the prompt.
When calling addEntry inside a subshell, the filesCopied array would
be updated only in the subshell's environment. This would only cause an
issue if no -g flag was passed to the script, causing no kernels
to be copied.
This fixes a failing assert in systemd-timesyncd (issue #5913) as it
expects the directory /run/systemd/netif/links/ to exist, and nothing in
NixOS currently creates it.
Also we get a net reduction in our code as rules for /run/utmp and
/var/log/journal are also provided by the same upstream file.

This shuts up this error from dbus:
May 11 13:52:16 machine dbus-daemon[259]: Unknown username "systemd-network" in message bus configuration file
May 11 13:52:16 machine dbus-daemon[259]: Unknown username "systemd-resolve" in message bus configuration file
which happens because the D-Bus config for networkd/resolved is
enabled unconditionally, and we don't have an easy way to turn it off.
(cherry picked from commit f19b58fb6a)
The systemd service was ignoring ExecStart because the path to the
paster executable was not absolute. Because ExecStart was ignored, the
service would not start.
In general, you don't want a .tar.gz file to be served with
"Content-Encoding: x-gzip", because this causes browsers (like Chrome
or "curl --compressed") to decompress the file on the fly. So you end
up with a .tar rather than .tar.gz file, which is unexpected.
If people want such encodings, they should set them in their own NixOS
configuration.
