Also removed `pkgs.hydra-flakes` since flake-support has been merged
into master[1]. Because of that, `pkgs.hydra-unstable` is now compiled
against `pkgs.nixFlakes` and currently requires a patch since Hydra's
master doesn't compile[2] atm.

Instead of making the configuration less portable by hard coding the number of
jobs equal to the cores we can also let nix set the same number at runtime.
We have this bug https://github.com/elementary/gala/issues/636
when using notifications in gala. It's likely to not really be fixed
because all development is on the new notifications server.
Them removing cerbere and registering with the SessionManager
should make shutdown very fast. This was even done in plank [0]
which was the last factor outside cerbere causing this.

As discussed in https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/73763, prevailing
consensus is to revert that commit. People use the hardened profile on
machines and run nix builds, and there's no good reason to use
unsandboxed builds at all unless you're in a platform that doesn't
support them.
This reverts commit 00ac71ab19.
So now we have only packages for human interaction in php.packages and
only extensions in php.extensions. With this php.packages.exts have
been merged into the same attribute set as all the other extensions to
make it flat and nice.
The nextcloud module have been updated to reflect this change as well
as the documentation.
In 7f838b4dde, we dropped systemd-udev-settle.service from display-manager.service's wants.
Unfortunately, we are doing something wrong since without it both Xorg and Wayland fail to start:
Failed to open gpu '/dev/dri/card0': GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.AccessDenied: Operation not permitted
Until we sort this out, let's add systemd-udev-settle.service to GDM to unblock the channels.
In contrast to `.service`-units, it's not possible to declare an
`overrides.conf`, however this is done by `generateUnits` for `.nspawn`
units as well. This change breaks the build if you have two derivations
configuring one nspawn unit.
This will happen in a case like this:
``` nix
{ pkgs, ... }: {
systemd.packages = [
(pkgs.writeTextDir "etc/systemd/nspawn/container0.nspawn" ''
[Files]
Bind=/tmp
'')
];
systemd.nspawn.container0 = {
/* ... */
};
}
```
This allows you to specify the system-wide flake registry. One use is
to pin 'nixpkgs' to the Nixpkgs version used to build the system:
nix.registry.nixpkgs.flake = nixpkgs;
where 'nixpkgs' is a flake input. This ensures that commands like
$ nix run nixpkgs#hello
pull in a minimum of additional store paths.
You can also use this to redirect flakes, e.g.
nix.registry.nixpkgs.to = {
type = "github";
owner = "my-org";
repo = "my-nixpkgs";
};
Many options define their example to be a Nix value without using
literalExample. This sometimes gets rendered incorrectly in the manual,
causing confusion like in https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/25516
This fixes it by using literalExample for such options. The list of
option to fix was determined with this expression:
let
nixos = import ./nixos { configuration = {}; };
lib = import ./lib;
valid = d: {
# escapeNixIdentifier from https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/82461
set = lib.all (n: lib.strings.escapeNixIdentifier n == n) (lib.attrNames d) && lib.all (v: valid v) (lib.attrValues d);
list = lib.all (v: valid v) d;
}.${builtins.typeOf d} or true;
optionList = lib.optionAttrSetToDocList nixos.options;
in map (opt: {
file = lib.elemAt opt.declarations 0;
loc = lib.options.showOption opt.loc;
}) (lib.filter (opt: if opt ? example then ! valid opt.example else false) optionList)
which when evaluated will output all options that use a Nix identifier
that would need escaping as an attribute name.
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.

Upgrades Hydra to the latest master/flake branch. To perform this
upgrade, it's needed to do a non-trivial db-migration which provides a
massive performance-improvement[1].
The basic ideas behind multi-step upgrades of services between NixOS versions
have been gathered already[2]. For further context it's recommended to
read this first.
Basically, the following steps are needed:
* Upgrade to a non-breaking version of Hydra with the db-changes
(columns are still nullable here). If `system.stateVersion` is set to
something older than 20.03, the package will be selected
automatically, otherwise `pkgs.hydra-migration` needs to be used.
* Run `hydra-backfill-ids` on the server.
* Deploy either `pkgs.hydra-unstable` (for Hydra master) or
`pkgs.hydra-flakes` (for flakes-support) to activate the optimization.
The steps are also documented in the release-notes and in the module
using `warnings`.
`pkgs.hydra` has been removed as latest Hydra doesn't compile with
`pkgs.nixStable` and to ensure a graceful migration using the newly
introduced packages.
To verify the approach, a simple vm-test has been added which verifies
the migration steps.

After upgrading to NixOS 20.03, I've got the following warning:
nginx: [warn] could not build optimal types_hash, you should increase either types_hash_max_size: 2048 or types_hash_bucket_size: 64; ignoring types_hash_bucket_size
The documentation states that "if nginx emits the message requesting
to increase either hash max size or hash bucket size then the first
parameter should first be increased" (aka types_hash_max_size).
In 19.03, the size of mime.types was around 100 entries. In 20.03, we
are around 900 entries. This is due to ff0148d868 which makes nginx
use mailcap mime.types.
In ff0148d868, nginx configuration was modified to use mime.types
from mailcap package as it is more complete. However, there are two
places where mime.types is included in configuration. When the user
was setting `cfg.httpConfig`, the mime.types from nginx was still
used. This commit fix that by moving the common snippet in a variable
of its own and ensure it is used at both places.
