- most nixos user only require time synchronisation,
while ntpd implements a battery-included ntp server (1,215 LOCs of C-Code vs 64,302)
- timesyncd support ntp server per interface (if configured through dhcp for instance)
- timesyncd is already included in the systemd package, switching to it would
save a little disk space (1,5M)
Using "tmpfs" as a script part for system.activationScripts is a bit
misleading since 6efcfe03ae.
We no longer solely mount tmpfs within this script, so using "specialfs"
fits more nicely in terms of naming.
Tested against the "simple" NixOS installer test.

Systemd upstream provides targets for networking. This also includes a target network-online.target.
In this PR I remove / replace most occurrences since some of them were even wrong and could delay startup.
We were pulling in 44 MiB of fonts in the default configuration, which
is a bit excessive for headless configurations like EC2
instances. Note that dejavu_minimal ensures that remote X11-forwarded
applications still have a basic font regardless.
This reverts commit 582313bafe.
Removing rsync is actually pointless because nixos-install depends on
it. So if it's part of the system closure, we may as well provide it
to users.
Probably with the next Nix release we can drop the use of rsync and
use "nix copy" instead.
This one was already merged into release-16.09, so let's not have the
stable branch is ahead of master and confuse things. In addition to
that, currently we have an odd situation that master has less things
actually finished building than in staging.

Verified that following nixos configuration:
users.users.foo = {
uid = 1000;
name = "foo";
};
users.users.bar = {
name = "bar";
};
Before this commit both users will get uid of 1000, after it's applied
bar will correctly get 1001.
The fontconfig-ultimate patches are unmaintained. Since they were
not updated for newer FreeType versions, this removes them and
disables fontconfig-ultimate by default.
This removes our hardcoded presets which weren't updated for quite some time.
Infinality now has new hardcoded presets in freetype, which can be overriden if
desired with environment variables (as before). Accordingly, updated NixOS
module to set the hardcoded preset.
Additionally used a more "right" type for substitutions.
Adds options for tcp streaming and avahi zeroconf support (so that the
server can be easily found by clients).
There is also an option to allow anonymous clients to stream to the
server (by default pulseaudio uses a cookie mechanism, see manpage).
