    <title>Highlights</title>
    <para>
      In addition to numerous new and upgraded packages, this release
      has the following highlights:
    </para>
    <itemizedlist>
      <listitem>
        <para>
          The GNOME version is now 3.24. KDE Plasma was upgraded to
          5.10, KDE Applications to 17.08.1 and KDE Frameworks to 5.37.
        </para>
      </listitem>
      <listitem>
        <para>
          The user handling now keeps track of deallocated UIDs/GIDs.
          When a user or group is revived, this allows it to be
          allocated the UID/GID it had before. A consequence is that
          UIDs and GIDs are no longer reused.
        </para>
      </listitem>
      <listitem>
        <para>
          The module option
          <literal>services.xserver.xrandrHeads</literal> now causes the
          first head specified in this list to be set as the primary
          head. Apart from that, it's now possible to also set
          additional options by using an attribute set, for example:
        </para>
        <programlisting language="bash">
{ services.xserver.xrandrHeads = [
    &quot;HDMI-0&quot;
    {
      output = &quot;DVI-0&quot;;
      primary = true;
      monitorConfig = ''
        Option &quot;Rotate&quot; &quot;right&quot;
      '';
    }
  ];
}
</programlisting>
        <para>
          This will set the <literal>DVI-0</literal> output to be the
          primary head, even though <literal>HDMI-0</literal> is the
          first head in the list.
        </para>
      </listitem>
      <listitem>
        <para>
          The handling of SSL in the <literal>services.nginx</literal>
          module has been cleaned up, renaming the misnamed
          <literal>enableSSL</literal> to <literal>onlySSL</literal>
          which reflects its original intention. This is not to be used
          with the already existing <literal>forceSSL</literal> which
          creates a second non-SSL virtual host redirecting to the SSL
          virtual host. This by chance had worked earlier due to
          specific implementation details. In case you had specified
          both please remove the <literal>enableSSL</literal> option to
          keep the previous behaviour.
        </para>
        <para>
          Another <literal>addSSL</literal> option has been introduced
          to configure both a non-SSL virtual host and an SSL virtual
          host with the same configuration.
        </para>
        <para>
          Options to configure <literal>resolver</literal> options and
          <literal>upstream</literal> blocks have been introduced. See
          their information for further details.
        </para>
        <para>
          The <literal>port</literal> option has been replaced by a more
          generic <literal>listen</literal> option which makes it
          possible to specify multiple addresses, ports and SSL configs
          dependant on the new SSL handling mentioned above.
        </para>

          However, some packages have broken due to this—their build
          systems either not supporting, or claiming to support without
          adequate testing, taking such environment variables as

          The new engine replaces the Infinality engine which was the
          default in NixOS. The default font rendering settings are now
          provided by fontconfig-penultimate, replacing
          fontconfig-ultimate; the new defaults are less invasive and
          provide rendering that is more consistent with other systems
