<para>
Added the Pantheon desktop environment. It can be enabled
through
<literal>services.xserver.desktopManager.pantheon.enable</literal>.
</para>
<note>
<para>
By default,
<literal>services.xserver.desktopManager.pantheon</literal>
enables LightDM as a display manager, as pantheon's screen
locking implementation relies on it. Because of that it is
recommended to leave LightDM enabled. If you'd like to
disable it anyway, set
<literal>services.xserver.displayManager.lightdm.enable</literal>
to <literal>false</literal> and enable your preferred
display manager.
</para>
</note>
<para>
Also note that Pantheon's LightDM greeter is not enabled by
default, because it has numerous issues in NixOS and isn't
optimal for use here yet.
</para>

<para>
A major refactoring of the Kubernetes module has been
completed. Refactorings primarily focus on decoupling
components and enhancing security. Two-way TLS and RBAC has
been enabled by default for all components, which slightly
changes the way the module is configured. See:
<xref linkend="sec-kubernetes" /> for details.

When upgrading from a previous release, please be aware of the
following incompatible changes:

<itemizedlist>
<listitem>
<para>
The minimum version of Nix required to evaluate Nixpkgs is now
2.0.
</para>
<itemizedlist>
<listitem>
<para>
For users of NixOS 18.03 and 19.03, NixOS defaults to Nix
2.0, but supports using Nix 1.11 by setting
<literal>nix.package = pkgs.nix1;</literal>. If this
option is set to a Nix 1.11 package, you will need to
either unset the option or upgrade it to Nix 2.0.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
For users of NixOS 17.09, you will first need to upgrade
Nix by setting
<literal>nix.package = pkgs.nixStable2;</literal> and run
<literal>nixos-rebuild switch</literal> as the
<literal>root</literal> user.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
For users of a daemon-less Nix installation on Linux or
macOS, you can upgrade Nix by running
<literal>curl -L https://nixos.org/nix/install | sh</literal>,
or prior to doing a channel update, running
<literal>nix-env -iA nix</literal>. If you have already
run a channel update and Nix is no longer able to evaluate
Nixpkgs, the error message printed should provide adequate
directions for upgrading Nix.
</para>

<para>
For users of the Nix daemon on macOS, you can upgrade Nix
by running

between native and non-native dependencies in order to improve
cross-compilation compatibility. Note however that this may
break user expressions.

The Syncthing state and configuration data has been moved from
<literal>services.syncthing.dataDir</literal> to the newly
defined <literal>services.syncthing.configDir</literal>, which

Slurm introduces the new option
<literal>services.slurm.stateSaveLocation</literal>, which is

Network interface indiscriminate NixOS firewall options
(<literal>networking.firewall.allow*</literal>) are now
preserved when also setting interface specific rules such as
<literal>networking.firewall.interfaces.en0.allow*</literal>.
These rules continue to use the pseudo device
&quot;default&quot;
(<literal>networking.firewall.interfaces.default.*</literal>),
and assigning to this pseudo device will override the
(<literal>networking.firewall.allow*</literal>) options.
</para>

<listitem>
<para>
The <literal>nscd</literal> service now disables all caching
of <literal>passwd</literal> and <literal>group</literal>
databases by default. This was interferring with the correct
functioning of the <literal>libnss_systemd.so</literal> module
which is used by <literal>systemd</literal> to manage uids and
usernames in the presence of <literal>DynamicUser=</literal>
in systemd services. This was already the default behaviour in
presence of <literal>services.sssd.enable = true</literal>
because nscd caching would interfere with
<literal>sssd</literal> in unpredictable ways as well. Because
we're using nscd not for caching, but for convincing glibc to
find NSS modules in the nix store instead of an absolute path,
we have decided to disable caching globally now, as it's
usually not the behaviour the user wants and can lead to
surprising behaviour. Furthermore, negative caching of host
lookups is also disabled now by default. This should fix the
issue of dns lookups failing in the presence of an unreliable
network.
</para>
<para>
If the old behaviour is desired, this can be restored by
setting the <literal>services.nscd.config</literal> option
with the desired caching parameters.

GitLab Shell previously used the nix store paths for the
<literal>gitlab-shell</literal> command in its
<literal>authorized_keys</literal> file, which might stop
working after garbage collection. To circumvent that, we
regenerated that file on each startup. As
<literal>gitlab-shell</literal> has now been changed to use
<literal>/var/run/current-system/sw/bin/gitlab-shell</literal>,
this is not necessary anymore, but there might be leftover
lines with a nix store path. Regenerate the
<literal>authorized_keys</literal> file via
<literal>sudo -u git -H gitlab-rake gitlab:shell:setup</literal>
in that case.

The <literal>pam_unix</literal> account module is now loaded
with its control field set to <literal>required</literal>
instead of <literal>sufficient</literal>, so that later PAM
account modules that might do more extensive checks are being
executed. Previously, the whole account module verification
was exited prematurely in case a nss module provided the
account name to <literal>pam_unix</literal>. The LDAP and SSSD
NixOS modules already add their NSS modules when enabled. In
case your setup breaks due to some later PAM account module
previosuly shadowed, or failing NSS lookups, please file a
bug. You can get back the old behaviour by manually setting
<literal>security.pam.services.&lt;name?&gt;.text</literal>.

The <literal>pam_unix</literal> password module is now loaded

managed only by later PAM password modules are being executed.
Previously, for example, changing an LDAP account's password
through PAM was not possible: the whole password module
verification was exited prematurely by
<literal>pam_unix</literal>, preventing
<literal>pam_ldap</literal> to manage the password as it
should.

Flat volumes are now disabled by default in

Note that the default value of
<literal>services.kubernetes.apiserver.bindAddress</literal>
has changed from 127.0.0.1 to 0.0.0.0, allowing the apiserver
to be accessible from outside the master node itself. If the
apiserver insecurePort is enabled, it is strongly recommended
to only bind on the loopback interface. See:
<literal>services.kubernetes.apiserver.insecurebindAddress</literal>.

The <literal>intel</literal> driver has been removed from the
default list of
<link xlink:href="options.html#opt-services.xserver.videoDrivers">X.org
video drivers</link>. The <literal>modesetting</literal>
driver should take over automatically, it is better maintained
upstream and has less problems with advanced X11 features.
This can lead to a change in the output names used by
<literal>xrandr</literal>. Some performance regressions on
some GPU models might happen. Some OpenCL and VA-API
applications might also break (Beignet seems to provide OpenCL
support with <literal>modesetting</literal> driver, too).
Kernel mode setting API does not support backlight control, so
<literal>xbacklight</literal> tool will not work; backlight
level can be controlled directly via <literal>/sys/</literal>
or with <literal>brightnessctl</literal>. Users who need this
functionality more than multi-output XRandR are advised to add
`intel` to `videoDrivers` and report an issue (or provide
additional details in an existing one)

Openmpi has been updated to version 4.0.0, which removes some
deprecated MPI-1 symbols. This may break some older
applications that still rely on those symbols. An upgrade
guide can be found
