/run/rmilter is set by systemd, and have root:root ownership, which
prevent pid file to write.
This fix suggested to be promoted to 18.09 branch.
(Although rmilter itself is deprecated, and I plan to remove it, after
18.09 would be released)
Add package libratbag and service module ratbagd
Libratbag contains ratbagd daemon and ratbagctl cli to configure
buttons, dpi, leds, etc. of gaming mice.
Add mvnetbiz to maintainers.
The test failed in one run on Hydra, logs look like
dhcpcd changed ipv6 routing at just the wrong time.
Disable dhcpcd. It's not needed, the test uses static IPs anyway.
Test didn't run because it tried to create a VM with 4096M RAM
but qemu-system-i386 has a hard 2047M memory limit.
- reduce memory to 2047M on i686.
- increase timeout 300s -> 1800s because the tests are much slower
on i686 and timed out.
The `pkgs.yabar` package is relatively old (2016-04) and contains
several issues fixed on master. `yabar-unstable` containsa recent master
build with several fixes and a lot of new features (I use
`yabar-unstable` for some time now and had no issues with it).
In the upstream bugtracker some bugs could be fixed on ArchLinux by
simply installing `yabar-git` (an AUR package which builds a recent
master).
To stabilize the module, the option `programs.yabar.package` now
defaults to `pkgs.yabar-unstable` and yields a warning with several
linked issues that are known on `pkgs.yabar`.
The test has been refactored as well to ensure that `yabar` actually
starts (and avoid non-deterministic random success) and takes a
screenshot of a very minimalistic configuration on IceWM.
Fixes#46899
This test doesn't work in a sandbox and never succeeded on Hydra.
It simulates an EC2 instance reconfiguring itself at runtime,
which needs network access.
This allows the definition of a custom derivation of Exim,
which can be used to enable custom features such as LDAP and PAM support.
The default behaviour remains unchanged (defaulting to pkgs.exim).
Fixed minor issue where kube-addon manager complaints about
/opt/namespace.yaml missing.
Added release notes with reference to Kubernetes 1.11 release notes.

1. Simplify the command by reading directly from /etc/machine-id which
is already a random, lower-case hex string
2. Previously, the command output could be too short because of missing
leading digits. This is now fixed.
For update-mime-database to work, you must have to have some mime
packages installed. In some DEs like XFCE this is not guaranteed to
happen. In that case just skip the update-mime-database call.
Fixes#46162
That way the built-in web server is usable by default but users can use
$HOME/web directly (instead of having to use a symlink), if they want to
customize the webpage.
Without a group the gid will default to 65534 (2^16 - 2) which maps to
"nogroup". IMO it makes more sense to explicitly set a valid group.
Adding pkgs.sks to environment.systemPackages is not required (IIRC we
want to avoid bloating environment.systemPackages). Instead it seems
like a better idea to make the relevant binaries available to the user
sks and enable useDefaultShell so that "su -l sks" can be used for
manual interaction (that way the files will always have the correct
owner).
This commit adds the following
* the uucp user
* options for HylaFAX server to control startup and modems
* systemd services for HylaFAX server processes
including faxgettys for modems
* systemd services to maintain the HylaFAX spool area,
including cleanup with faxcron and faxqclean
* default configuration for all server processes
for a minimal working configuration
Some notes:
* HylaFAX configuration cannot be initialized with faxsetup
(as it would be common on other Linux distributions).
The hylafaxplus package contains a template spool area.
* Modems are controlled by faxgetty.
Send-only configuration (modems controlled by faxq)
is not supported by this configuration setup.
* To enable the service, one or more modems must be defined with
config.services.hylafax.modems .
* Sending mail *should* work:
HylaFAX will use whatever is in
config.services.mail.sendmailSetuidWrapper.program
unless overridden with the sendmailPath option.
* The admin has to create a hosts.hfaxd file somewhere
(e.g. in /etc) before enabling HylaFAX.
This file controls access to the server (see hosts.hfaxd(5) ).
Sadly, HylaFAX does not permit account-based access
control as is accepts connections via TCP only.
* Active fax polling should work; I can't test it.
* Passive fax polling is not supported by HylaFAX.
* Pager transmissions (with sendpage) are disabled by default.
I have never tested or used these.
* Incoming data/voice/"extern"al calls
won't be handled by default.
I have never tested or used these.
Take two of #40708 (4fe2898608).
That PR attempted to bidirectionally default `config.nixpkgs.system` and
`config.nixpkgs.localSystem.system` to each be updated by the other. But
this is not possible with the way the module system works. Divergence in
certain cases in inevitable.
This PR is more conservative and just has `system` default `localSystem`
and `localSystem` make the final call as-is. This solves a number of
issues.
- `localSystem` completely overrides `system`, just like with nixpkgs
proper. There is no need to specify `localSystem.system` to clobber the
old system.
- `config.nixpkgs.localSystem` is exactly what is passed to nixpkgs. No
spooky steps.
- `config.nixpkgs.localSystem` is elaborated just as nixpkgs would so
that all attributes are available, not just the ones the user
specified.
The remaining issue is just that `config.nixpkgs.system` doesn't update
based on `config.nixpkgs.localSystem.system`. It should never be
referred to lest it is a bogus stale value because
`config.nixpkgs.localSystem` overwrites it.
Fixes#46320
This adds several improvements the previously introduced
`services.weechat` module:
* Dropped `services.weechat.init` as the initialization script can now
be done on package-level since 2af41719bc using the `configure`
function.
* Added `sessionName` option to explicitly configure a name for the
`screen` session (by default: weechat-screen).
* Added `binary` option to configure the binary name (e.g.
`weechat-headless`).
* Added docs regarding `screen` session and `weechat.service`.
Previously it was only possible to use very simple Riemann config.
For more complicated scenarios you need a directory of clojure
files and the config file that riemann starts with should be in this
directory.
This fixes an issue with shells like fish that are not fully POSIX
compliant. The syntax `ENV=val cmd' doesn't work properly in there.
This issue has been addressed in #45932 and #45945, however it has been
recommended to use a single shell (`stdenv.shell' which is either
`bash' or `sh') to significantly reduce the maintenance overload in the
future.

A sporadic failure occured on Hydra because a request was sent
to smtpd after the systemd unit was started, but before the daemon
was actually listening. Fix by checking for open ports first.

Some programs like eog seem to need dconf accessible on dbus.

This adds a release notes entry to make users (and especially
developers) aware so they no longer need to use </para><para> in option
descriptions as this is now done automatically on every two consecutive
newlines.

Although double '/' in paths is not a problem for GRUB supplied with nixpkgs, sometimes NixOS's grub.conf read by external GRUB and there are versions of GRUB which fail
Generated reverse path filtering rules for the macvlan interface
seem to be incorrect, causing the test to fail - sometimes or always,
depending on the dhcpcd version used.
- Disable reverse path checking temporarily to avoid blocking the channel
- Print more diagnostic information for debugging
The switch from slim to lightdm in #30890 broke some nixos tests
because lightdm by default doesn't permit auto-login for root.
Override /etc/pam.d/lightdm-autologin to allow it.
What annoyed me for a long time was the fact, that in order to break
into a new paragraph, you need to insert </para><para> in the
description attribute of an option.
Now we will automatically create <para/> elements for every block that
is separated by two consecutive newlines.
I first tried to do this within options-to-docbook.xsl, but it turns
out[1] that this isn't directly possible with XSLT 1.0, so I added
another XSLT file that postprocesses the option descriptions that are
now enclosed in <nixos:option-description/> by options-to-docbook.xsl.
The splitting itself is a bit more involved, because we can't simply
split on every \n\n because we'd also split text nodes of elements, for
example:
<screen><![CDATA[
one line
another one
]]></screen>
This would create one <para/> element for "one line" and another for
"another line", which we obviously don't want because <screen/> is used
to display verbatim contents of what a user is seeing on the screen.
So what we do instead is splitting *only* the top-level text nodes
within the outermost <para/> and leave all elements as-is. If there are
more than one <para/> elements at the top-level, we simply don't process
it at all, because the description then already contains </para><para>.

The switch to lightdm as default display manager in #30890
broke eval of the flatpak test. Since the test uses the
auto display manager (lightdm), gdm must now be explicitly disabled.
The option was added in 1251b34b5b
with type `types.path` but default `null`, so eval failed with
the default setting. This broke the acme and certmgr tests.

This is the semantics as understood by `xdg-open`. Using these semantics
on a non-colon-separated variable works because it acts as if it was a
one element long list.
This fixes an issue where it would try to exec
`google-chrome-beta:google-chrome:chromium:firefox` on a system
configured with these semantics in mind.
The instructions to install nixos behind a proxy were not clear. While
one could guess that setting http_proxy variables can get the install
rolling, one could end up with an installed system where the proxy
settings for the nix-daemon are not configured.
This commit updates the documentation with
1. steps to install behind a proxy
2. configure the global proxy settings so that nix-daemon can access
internet.
3. Pointers to use nesting.clone in case one has to use different proxy
settings on different networks.
