While systemd suggests using the pre-defined graphical-session user
target, I found that this interface is difficult to use. Additionally,
no other major distribution, even in their unstable versions, currently
use this mechanism.
The window or desktop manager is supposed to run in a systemd user service
which activates graphical-session.target and the user services that are
binding to this target. The issue is that we can't elegantly pass the
xsession environment to the window manager session, in particular
whereas the PassEnvironment option does work for DISPLAY, it for some
mysterious reason won't for PATH.
This commit implements a new graphical user target that works just like
default.target. Services which should be run in a graphical session just
need to declare wantedBy graphical.target. The graphical target will be
activated in the xsession before executing the window or display manager.
Fixes #17858.
SSH expects a new line at the end of known_hosts file.
Without a new line the next entry goes on the same line
as the last entry in known_hosts causing errors.
Right now the `programs.zsh.syntax-highlighting.highlighters` option
lacks appropriate validation which can cause confusing things when
mistyping a higlighter for zsh-syntax-highlighting.
* programs.zsh: factor zsh-syntax-highlighting out into its own module
* programs.zsh.syntax-highlighting: add `highlighters` option
* programs.zsh: document BC break introduced by moving zsh-syntax-completion into its own module
* programs.zsh: add enableOhMyZsh option to automate setup of oh-my-zsh in global zshrc
* programs.zsh: make oh-my-zsh plugins configurable
* programs.zsh: add ohMyZshCustom option
* programs.zsh: add ohMyZshTheme option
* programs.zsh: applying minor fixes to evaluate expressions properly
* programs.zsh: fix ordering of oh-my-zsh config and execution
* programs.zsh: move all oh-my-zsh params into its own scope named programs.zsh.oh-my-zsh
In order to use qt5ct (Qt5 Configuration Tool) to configure Qt5
settings (theme, font, icons, etc.) under DE/WM without Qt
integration, the environment variable QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME should be
set to "qt5ct".
It can be done automatically by this module, or by setting the
variable explicitly in the user or in the system configuration.
In the absence of XCURSOR_PATH, the function XcursorLibraryPath
in libXcursor will return a hardcoded value unsuitable for NixOS.
Some desktops as well as display managers in NixOS currently do
set XCURSOR_PATH, but there are combinations where neither does
(e.g. SDDM+XFCE), resulting in no cursor themes being available.
The new definition if XCURSOR_PATH is effectively the same as what
KDE's startkde currently does.
Fixes issue #21442.
To be able to use Wireshark as an ordinary user, the 'dumpcap' program
must be installed setuid root. This module module simplifies such a
configuration to simply:
programs.wireshark.enable = true;
The setuid wrapper is available for users in the 'wireshark' group.
Changes v1 -> v2:
- add "defaultText" to the programs.wireshark.package option (AFAIK,
that prevents the manual from being needlessly rebuilt when the
package changes)
The content of programs.zsh.interactiveShellInit was
inserted too soon in the generated zshrc
This caused some settings related to autocompletion to be ignored
The configuration { services.openssh.enable = true;
services.openssh.forwardX11 = false; } caused
programs.ssh.setXAuthLocation to be set to false, which was not the
intent. The intent is that programs.ssh.setXAuthLocation should be
automatically enabled if needed or if xauth is already available.
Every interactive zsh sources /etc/zshrc (see STARTUP/SHUTDOWN FILES in zshautll(1))
Therefor every interactive zsh process will respect the content of these variables.
Using `export` will also lead to child processes inheriting this value.
This leads to problems, if other interactive shells are spawned such as bash,
because they use an incomptabible history format (without timestamps).
There seems to be also cases, where the local HISTSIZE in ~/.zshrc is
not sourced but /etc/zshrc, which leads to history truncation in other shells.

For now, leave the old implementation under `man-old` attribute.
Small warning: I had a leftover ~/.nix-profile/man from an old package,
which caused man-db's man prefer it and ignore ~/.nix-profile/share/man.
The PATH->MANPATH code just selects the first match for each PATH item.
This basic module allows you to specify the tmux configuration.
As great as tmux is, some of the defaults are pretty awful, so having a
way to specify the config really helps.
This reverts commit e8e8164f34. I
misread the original commit as adding the "which" package, but it only
adds it to base.nix. So then the original motivation (making it work
in subshells) doesn't hold. Note that we already have some convenience
aliases that don't work in subshells either (such as "ll").
This reverts most of 89e983786a, as those references are sanitized now.
Fixes #10039, at least most of it.
The `sane` case wasn't fixed, as it calls a *function* in pkgs to get
the default value.
- Now `pkg.outputUnspecified = true` but this attribute is missing in
every output, so we can recognize whether the user chose or not.
If (s)he didn't choose, we put `pkg.bin or pkg.out or pkg` into
`systemPackages`.
- `outputsToLink` is replaced by `extraOutputsToLink`.
We add extra outputs *regardless* of whether the user chose anything.
It's mainly meant for outputs with docs and debug symbols.
- Note that as a result, some libraries will disappear from system path.
If we limit SSH_ASKPASS to interactive shells, users are unable to trigger
the ssh-passphrase dialog from their desktop environment autostart scripts.
Usecase: I call ssh-add during my desktop environment autostart and want to have
the passphrase dialog immediately after startup.
For this to work, SSH_ASKPASS needs to be propagated properly on
non-interactive shells.
- add missing types in module definitions
- add missing 'defaultText' in module definitions
- wrap example with 'literalExample' where necessary in module definitions

* Patched fish to load /etc/fish/config.fish if it exists (by default,
it only loads config relative to itself)
* Added fish-foreign-env package to parse the system environment
closes #5331
The idea that the interactive bash prompt isn't set in case of TERM=dumb
is intended to fix problems when other machines log remotely into a
NixOS installation via Tramp. A side-effect that change was, however,
that Emacs' shell-mode no longer had a correct prompt. I suppose the
presence of
INSIDE_EMACS=24.5.2,comint
is a sufficiently unique indication that the current interactive shell
is running inside of an Emacs and that the prompt can thus be configured
safely.
This reverts commit a8eb2a6a81. OpenSSH
7.0 is causing too many interoperability problems so soon before the
15.08 release.
For instance, it causes NixOps EC2 initial deployments to fail with
"REMOTE HOST IDENTIFICATION HAS CHANGED". This is because the client
knows the server's ssh-dss host key, but this key is no longer
accepted by default. Setting "HostKeyAlgorithms" to "+ssh-dss" does
not work because it causes ssh-dss to be ordered after
"ecdsa-sha2-nistp521", which the server also offers. (Normally, ssh
prioritizes host key algorithms for which the client has a known host
key, but not if you set HostKeyAlgorithms.)
