Use "$out/var/lib" as LOCALSTATEDIR configuration value
by default intsead of "/var/lib"
as a way toward top-level-directory independent runtime.
Add input argument externalLocalStateDir to optionally specify the
path to external LOCALSTATEDIR if not null.
Add NixOS module option
programs.singularity.enableExternalLocalStateDir (default to true)
to use "/var/lib" as LOCALSTATEDIR.
We set[1] ASPELL_CONF to the last nix profile containing lib/aspell in
2013. In 2017, aspell is patched[2] to search NIX_PROFILES, which
makes [1] not needed any more.
Deleting it is also agreed in this discussion[3].

If other sockets are enabled, such as gpg-agent-browser.socket,
those should be started before gpg-agent.service as well.

Since Linux 5.7 it's possible to set `SO_BINDTODEVICE` via `setsockopt(2)`
as unprivileged user if this operation doesn't imply escaping a VRF
interface[1].
Dropping the wrapper is actually desirable because `captive-browser`
itself doesn't drop capabilities and as a result, the capabilities are
passed on to `chromium` itself[2].
For older kernels, this is still necessary, hence the wrapper will only
be added nowadays if the kernel is older than 5.7.

and because our setcap wrapper makes all capabilities
inheritable.
Unfortunately there's no test for me to confirm that it works,
so all I can do is ask for maintainers, unfortunately -- I mean...
This is your opportunity!
Fix regression where the systemd units for atop are no longer
automatically started at boot when programs.atop.enable = true.
Regression was introduced in commit: 09350ff7d4
nixos/atop: Convert log format to fix service start
This commit restructures the atop systemd service config so that the
code to convert the log format gets configured as a preStart script
along with the addition of the wantedBy rule.
8ea644997f moved the configuration outside
the pinentryFlavor check, causing evaluation to fail when it was set to
null.
960a5142aa removed the upstream systemd
units, causing gpg-agent.service to be conditional on pinentryFlavor.
It is currently not obvious how to install/use xonsh with dependencies and python packages.
This PR implements a wrapper that allows you to construct a custom xonsh environment by using:
``` nix
xonsh.override { extraPackages = ps: [ ps.requests ]; }
```
This allows users to set
`programs.firefox.nativeMessagingHosts.euwebid = true` to make the
native companion app available in Firefox.
It's used by the Web eID browser extension
(https://addons.mozilla.org/en/firefox/addon/web-eid-webextension/),
which can be tried out at https://web-eid.eu/ - pressing the
"Authenticate" button there should open a new window.
Else the files in the runtime can't be accessed from the vimrc. I also remove the /etc. I thought it's a leftover of the old runtime implementation which is replaced in 307b125.

Before, setting {option}`programs.steam.package` would result in a steam without
the {option}`hardware.opengl.package`, {option}`hardware.opengl.extraPackages`
etc. You had to manually add them yourself.
Additionally, overlaying `steam = prev.steam.override { extraLibraries = [ ... ]; }`
resulted in those extra libraries not actually being put into the fhsenv because
they'd be fully overridden by the option's default.
Now, the user can supply a custom steam to {option}`programs.steam.package` with
its own list of extraLibraries which will not be overridden and overlays work as
expected too.
environment.systemPackages can include any package, which means it can
be a top-level store path that is not a derivation and thus will not
have a name attribute - their name is extracted from the path instead.
This patch provides input arguments `newuidmapPath` and `newgidmapPath`
for apptainer and singularity to specify the path to the SUID-ed executables
newuidmap and newgidmap where they are not available from the FHS PATH.
As NixOS places those suided executables in a non-FHS position
(/run/wrapper/bin), this patch provides
programs.singularity.enableFakeroot option and implement with the above
input parameters.
Upstream changes:
singularity 3.8.7 (the legacy) -> apptainer 1.1.3 (the renamed) / singularity 3.10.4 (Sylabs's fork)
Build process:
* Share between different sources
* Fix the sed regexp to make defaultPath patch work
* allowGoReference is now true
* Provied input parameter removeCompat (default to false)
that removes the compatible "*singularity*" symbolic links
and related autocompletion files when projectName != "singularity"
* Change localstatedir to /var/lib
* Format with nixpkgs-fmt
* Fix the defaultPath patching
and use it instead of the `<executable> path` config directive
deprecated in Apptainer
* Provide dependencies for new functionalities such as
squashfuse (unprivileged squashfs mount)
* Provide an attribute `defaultPathInputs` to override
prefix of container runtime default PATH
NixOS module programs.singularity:
* Allow users to specify packages
* Place related directories to /var/lib
* Format with nixpkgs-fmt
singularity-tools:
* Allow users to specify packages
* Place related directories to /var/lib when building images in VM
fixes this warning:
cdrecord <= 2.01.01a05 will be run with root privileges on kernel >= 2.6.8
Since Linux kernel 2.6.8 cdrecord <= 2.01.01a05 will not work when run suid root for security reasons anymore.
Before this change, starting atop regularly caused a quadratic
increase in the number of log files over time, as each daily log file
was copied (multiple times) to a new file, and then left there because
the upgrade was a no-op. This eventually led to atop being unable to
start because the log file name became too long!
this converts meta.doc into an md pointer, not an xml pointer. since we
no longer need xml for manual chapters we can also remove support for
manual chapters from md-to-db.sh
since pandoc converts smart quotes to docbook quote elements and our
nixos-render-docs does not we lose this distinction in the rendered
output. that's probably not that bad, our stylesheet didn't make use of
this anyway (and pre-23.05 versions of the chapters didn't use quote
elements either).
also updates the nixpkgs manual to clarify that option docs support all
extensions (although it doesn't support headings at all, so heading
anchors don't work by extension).
MD can only do the latter, so change them all over now to keeps diffs reviewable.
this also includes <literal><xref> -> <xref> where options are referenced since
the reference will implicitly add an inner literal tag.
markdown cannot represent those links. remove them all now instead of in
each chapter conversion to keep the diff for each chapter small and more
understandable.
When this module was first introduced, it processed the runtime option
in a way that nested the resulting files and directories under an etc
directory.
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/98506/files#diff-685092dbb1852fbf30857fe3505d25dc471dc79d0f31c466523b5f5822b68127R11-R21
That implementation relied on nixos/modules/system/etc/make-etc.sh, a
script that was later removed.
eb7120dc79
The implementation was updated to use linkFarm, which changed the
behavior slightly, in that the configured files and directories are no
longer automatically nested under an etc directory.
307b1253a7
But the module still configures neovim's runtimepath in a way that
assumes the old nesting behavior.
04f574a1c0/nixos/modules/programs/neovim.nix (L173)
Restore the original behavior, nesting runtime files and directories
under an etc directory.
This fixes a typo that prevented the fish keybindings from being loaded.
Also, the keybindings are now only loaded if programs.skim.keybindings
is true, which matches the behavior for bash and zsh.
Building etc."fish/setEnvironment.fish" needs
config.system.build.setEnvironment, which can be very large. And what
babelfishTranslate does is to translate env vars exported by bash
syntax, which does not need much computing power.
This patch can reduce the network traffic when using remote builders
with almost no harm.
Both Zsh and Bash support aliases that begin with characters also used to
indicate options to the “alias” built-in command, as long as the alias
definition is preceeded by a double dash.
This allows, e.g, for “alias -- +x=chmod +x”.
When a script specifies the shell option “nounset” as part of the shebang (e.g.,
via “#!/usr/bin/env -S zsh -u”), our initialization scripts would produce error
messages of the form:
__ETC_FOO_SOURCED: parameter not set
These messages could probably be confusing to users when running such scripts.
By providing a fall-back in the parameter expansion, we can avoid them.
This patch does not address interactive shell start-up, where such messages may
(or may not) be less problematic.
Zsh ships some rudimentary completions for programs where upstream also ships
their own completions (e.g., curl). So as not to shadow those completions, we
need to prepend to the fpath instead of appending.
Fixes#197502
Neovim does not load the user configuration when enabled through the
module, unlike when the package is added to the home or system packages
directly. I think this difference is worth mentioning in the module's
documentation, because it was confusing to some friends.
Optional functionality of AusweisApp2 requires an UDP port to be opened.
The module allows for convenient configuration and serves as documentation.

most of these are hidden because they're either part of a submodule that
doesn't have its type rendered (eg because the submodule type is used in
an either type) or because they are explicitly hidden. some of them are
merely hidden from nix-doc-munge by how their option is put together.
conversions were done using https://github.com/pennae/nix-doc-munge
using (probably) rev f34e145 running
nix-doc-munge nixos/**/*.nix
nix-doc-munge --import nixos/**/*.nix
the tool ensures that only changes that could affect the generated
manual *but don't* are committed, other changes require manual review
and are discarded.
this mostly means marking options that use markdown already
appropriately and making a few adjustments so they still render
correctly. notable for nftables we have to transform the md links
because the manpage would not render them correctly otherwise.
Makes it easier to configure `rust-motd`. Currently, it takes care of
the following things:
* Creating a timer to regularly refresh the `motd`-text and a hardened
service (which is still root to get access to e.g. fs-mounts, but
read-only because of hardening flags).
* Disabling `PrintLastLog` in `sshd.conf` if the last-login feature of
`rust-motd` is supposed to be used.
* Ensure that the banner is actually shown when connecting via `ssh(1)`
to a remote server with this being enabled.
Long story short: the SSH agent protocol doesn't support telling from
which tty the request is coming from, so the the pinentry curses prompt
appears on the login tty and messes up the output and may hang.
The current trick to workaround this is informing the gnupg agent every
time you start a shell: this assumes you will run `ssh` in the latest
tty, if you don't the latest tty will be messed up this time.
The ideal solution would be updating the tty exactly when (and where)
you run `ssh`. This is actually possible using a catch-all Match block
in ssh_config and using the `exec` feature that hooks a command to the
current shell.

this renders the same in the manpage and a little more clearly in the
html manual. in the manpage there continues to be no distinction from
regular text, the html manual gets code-type markup (which was probably
the intention for most of these uses anyway).
make (almost) all links appear on only a single line, with no
unnecessary whitespace, using double quotes for attributes. this lets us
automatically convert them to markdown easily.
the few remaining links are extremely long link in a gnome module, we'll
come back to those at a later date.
we can't embed syntactic annotations of this kind in markdown code
blocks without yet another extension. replaceable is rare enough to make
this not much worth it, so we'll go with «thing» instead. the module
system already uses this format for its placeholder names in attrsOf
paths.
markdown can't represent the difference without another extension and
both the html manual and the manpage render them the same, so keeping the
distinction is not very useful on its own. with the distinction removed
we can automatically convert many options that use <code> tags to markdown.
the manpage remains unchanged, html manual does not render
differently (but class names on code tags do change from "code" to "literal").
