This windowManager and desktopManager doesn't even have
an option to use it. git history suggests to me that there's no way anyone
finds this useful anymore.
Running the manual on a TTY is useless in the graphical ISOs and not
particularly useful in non-graphical ISOs (since you can also run
'nixos-help').
Fixes#83157.
The v7 series is very different.
This commit introduces the 3 packages: fahclient, fahcontrol and
fahviewer. It also rebuilds the NixOS module to map better with the new
client.
Add a cage module to nixos. This can be used to make kiosk-style
systems that boot directly to a single application. The user (demo by
default) is automatically logged in by this service and the
program (xterm by default) is automatically started.
This is useful for some embedded, single-user systems where we want
automatic booting. To keep the system secure, the user should have
limited privileges.
Based on the service provided in the Cage wiki here:

Due to the support of the systemd-logind API the udev rules aren't
required anymore which renders this module useless [0].
Note: brightnessctl should now require a working D-Bus setup and a valid
local logind session for this to work.

This module allows root autoLogin, so we would break that for users, but
they shouldn't be using it anyways. This gives the impression like auto
is some special display manager, when it's just lightdm and special pam
rules to allow root autoLogin. It was created for NixOS's testing
so I believe this is where it belongs.
On numerous occasions I have seen users mistake this
module as libinput because it being called "multitouch"
and them being unaware that the actually module they want
is libinput. They then run into several decrepit bugs due
to the completely out-of-date nature of the underlying package.
The underlying package hasn't been changed to an up-to-date
fork in a period of 8 years. I don't consider this to be production quality.
However, I'm not opposed for the module being readded to NixOS
with new packaging, and a better name.
As of 2020-01-09, way-cooler is officially dead:

hence, remove the package and the module.

This commit moves all the virtual console related options
to a dedicated config/console.nix NixOS module.
Currently most of these are defined in config/i18n.nix
with a "console" prefix like `i18n.consoleFont`,
`i18n.consoleColors` or under `boot` and are implemented
in tasks/kbd.nix.
Since they have little to do with actual internationalisation
and are (informally) in an attrset already, it makes sense to
move them to a specific module.
osquery was marked as broken since April.
If somebody steps up to fix it, we can always revive it from the
histroy, but there's not much value in shipping completely broken things
in current master.

This PR is part of the networking.* namespace cleanup.
The Cisco VPN module is currently of limited value since it just creates
config files but does not manage services. The same functionality can be
achieved by using _environment.etc_ instead.
It would be a different situation if we had a full service module. So if
you are annoyed by this change, please consider write a more featureful
module and put its options unter _services.networking.vpnc_.
Note that this change removes options for *Cisco VPN*, not
*networkmanager-vpn*.
