Robert Schütz 663d6e8f9d attic: uninit
Attic is currently broken on master.
The Attic git repo has not been updated since May 2015.
Arch Linux also does not have an Attic package anymore.
Borg should be able to read Attic backups using
http://borgbackup.readthedocs.io/en/stable/usage/upgrade.html#attic-and-borg-0-xx-to-borg-1-x.

Remove Xfce-specific display manager tip
This is already covered in the previous chapter https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/nixos/doc/manual/configuration/x-windows.xml#L38-L46 - Xfce also depends on X and it doesn't need a special section on display managers.

nixos-install: Make compatible with Nix 2.0
The use of Nix 2.0 significantly simplifies the installer, since we
can just pass a different store URI (--store /mnt) - it's no longer
needed to set up a chroot environment for the build, and to bootstrap
Nix into the chroot.

Also, commands that need to run in the installation (namely boot
loader installation and setting a root password) are now executed
using nixos-enter.

This also removes the need for nixos-prepare-root since any required
initialisation is done by Nix or by the activation script.
2018-02-05 19:50:36 +01:00
Eelco Dolstra 60cb23001a
Add a "nixos-enter" command
This factors out the functionality in nixos-install for running a
command inside a NixOS installation (nixos-install --chroot).

Jörg Thalheim c9c8a2c5b3 nixos/memcached: make unix sockets usuable
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.

This reverts commit 93c54acf97.
This reopens #30517 @nbp @Ma27

Breaking people's config for this is hardly reasonable as is. If it
absolutely cannot be avoided, at the very least, we need to provide
clear instructions on what people need to upgrade in their config. I
actually had to bisect to the commit, to even find out what property I
should change or define, as the error message was useless. It didn't
even mention a property name.

Discussion on the PR seems to be ongoing, so I'm reverting this, so we
don't break people's systems on unstable.

radicale: 1.1.4 -> 2.1.2
This commit readds and updates the 1.x package from 1.1.4 to 1.1.6 which
also includes the needed command for migrating to 2.x

The module is adjusted to the version change, defaulting to radicale2 if
stateVersion >= 17.09 and radicale1 otherwise. It also now uses
ExecStart instead of the script service attribute. Some missing dots at
the end of sentences were also added.

I added a paragraph in the release notes on how to update to a newer
version.

doc: clarify building-nixos CD/DVD instructions
This change updates the instructions for building a NixOS ISO so that it's clear how to do it.

Previously, the instructions stated to set NIXOS_CONFIG prior to running `nix-build`, yet the example provided by-passed NIXOS_CONFIG anyway. But the *really* important missing piece is the need for nixos/default.nix. See #21840.

This change removes the NIXOS_CONFIG verbiage, and adds steps to clone nixpkgs and (most importantly) cd'ing into nixpkgs/nixos. That way, the reader may think: *Oh, so I need a default.nix and a configuration.nix. Ahhh, OK.*

I purposely added the redundant default.nix argument.

Change the default superuser from `root` to `postgres` for state

* postgresql service: change default data directory for 17.09

The new directory includes the schema version of the database.
This makes upgrades easier and is more consistent with other distros.

Merge pull request #15353 (improve xrandrHeads)
When you have a setup consisting of multiple monitors, the default is
that the first monitor detected by xrandr is set to the primary monitor.

However this may not be the monitor you need to be set as primary. In
fact this monitor set to primary may in fact be disconnected.

This has happened for the original submitter of the pull request and it
affected these programs:

 * XMonad: Gets confused with Super + {w,e,r}
 * SDDM: Puts the login screen on the wrong monitor, and does not
         currently duplicate the login screen on all monitors
 * XMobar: Puts the XMobar on the wrong monitor, as it only puts the
           taskbar on the primary monitor

These changes should fix that not only by setting a primary monitor in
xrandrHeads but also make it possible to make a different monitor the
primary one.

The changes are also backwards-compatible.

Allow attaching to non-child processes by default
The inability to run strace or gdb is the kind of
developer-unfriendliness that we're used to from OS X, let's not do it
on NixOS.

This restriction can be re-enabled by setting

  boot.kernel.sysctl."kernel.yama.ptrace_scope" = 1;

It might be nice to have a NixOS module for enabling hardened defaults.

Xref #14392.

Thanks @abbradar.

        "CVE-0000-00001: local privilege escalation"
      ];
    }

and a user attempts to install the package, they will be greeted with
a warning indicating that maybe they don't want to install it:

    error: Package ‘foobar-1.2.3’ in ‘...default.nix:20’ is marked as insecure, refusing to evaluate.

    Known issues:

     - CVE-0000-00000: remote code execution
     - CVE-0000-00001: local privilege escalation

    You can install it anyway by whitelisting this package, using the
    following methods:

    a) for `nixos-rebuild` you can add ‘foobar-1.2.3’ to
       `nixpkgs.config.permittedInsecurePackages` in the configuration.nix,
       like so:

         {
           nixpkgs.config.permittedInsecurePackages = [
             "foobar-1.2.3"
           ];
         }

    b) For `nix-env`, `nix-build`, `nix-shell` or any other Nix command you can add
    ‘foobar-1.2.3’ to `permittedInsecurePackages` in
    ~/.config/nixpkgs/config.nix, like so:

         {
           permittedInsecurePackages = [
             "foobar-1.2.3"
           ];
         }

Adding either of these configurations will permit this specific
version to be installed. A third option also exists:

  NIXPKGS_ALLOW_INSECURE=1 nix-build ...

though I specifically avoided having a global file-based toggle to
disable this check. This way, users don't disable it once in order to
get a single package, and then don't realize future packages are
insecure.

From Postfix documentation:

With this setting, the Postfix SMTP server will not reject mail with "User
unknown in local recipient table". Don't do this on systems that receive mail
directly from the Internet. With today's worms and viruses, Postfix will become
a backscatter source: it accepts mail for non-existent recipients and then
tries to return that mail as "undeliverable" to the often forged sender
address.

Nicolas B. Pierron f5dfe78a1e Add overlays mechanism to Nixpkgs.
This patch add a new argument to Nixpkgs default expression named "overlays".

By default, the value of the argument is either taken from the environment variable `NIXPKGS_OVERLAYS`,
or from the directory `~/.nixpkgs/overlays/`.  If the environment variable does not name a valid directory
then this mechanism would fallback on the home directory.  If the home directory does not exists it will
fallback on an empty list of overlays.

The overlays directory should contain the list of extra Nixpkgs stages which would be used to extend the
content of Nixpkgs, with additional set of packages.  The overlays, i-e directory, files, symbolic links
are used in alphabetical order.

The simplest overlay which extends Nixpkgs with nothing looks like:

```nix
self: super: {
}
```

More refined overlays can use `super` as the basis for building new packages, and `self` as a way to query
the final result of the fix-point.

An example of overlay which extends Nixpkgs with a small set of packages can be found at:
  https://github.com/nbp/nixpkgs-mozilla/blob/nixpkgs-overlay/moz-overlay.nix

To use this file, checkout the repository and add a symbolic link to
the `moz-overlay.nix` file in `~/.nixpkgs/overlays` directory.

stdenv/stripHash: print to stdout, not to variable
`stripHash` documentation states that it prints out the stripped name to
the stdout, but the function stored the value in `strippedName`
instead.

Basically all usages did something like
`$(stripHash $foo | echo $strippedName)` which is just braindamaged.
Fixed the implementation and all invocations.
