Highlights

  • Create the first release note entry in this section!

New Services

Backward Incompatibilities

  • mkosi was updated to v19. Parts of the user interface have changed. Consult the release notes for a list of changes.

Other Notable Changes

  • Programs written in Nim are built with libraries selected by lockfiles. The nimPackages and nim2Packages sets have been removed. See https://nixos.org/manual/nixpkgs/unstable#nim for more information.

  • libass now uses the native CoreText backend on Darwin, which may fix subtitle rendering issues with mpv, ffmpeg, etc.

  • The Yama LSM is now enabled by default in the kernel, which prevents ptracing non-child processes. This means you will not be able to attach gdb to an existing process, but will need to start that process from gdb (so it is a child). Or you can set boot.kernel.sysctl."kernel.yama.ptrace_scope" to 0.

  • The hardware.pulseaudio module now sets permission of pulse user home directory to 755 when running in "systemWide" mode. It fixes issue 114399.
