Riak have been updated a lot since the version 2.2 (now 3.0.10) but
has seen no updated to the package. This is at this point
a problem forcing us to maintain old versions of erlang.
We would be happy to re accept a newer version of Riak if someone want
to spend the time to set it up.
- initialSystem was keeping track of the evaluating system
- it had been used by `nesting.children`
- since, 20.09, `nesting.children` has been replaced with named
specializations
It appears that this option was left over and not cleand up properly.
It doesn't make sense to have a default value for this that's
incompatible with the default locate implementation. It means that
just doing services.locate.enable = true; generates a warning, even if
you don't care about pruning anything. So only use the default prune
list if the locate implementation supports it (i.e., isn't findutils).
Addresses #16545. Allows for user defined environment variables that
hold paths to wordlists. This is to allow for easy access to wordlists
for users and scripts, (in other distributions a convenient wordlist is
typically found in /usr/share/dict/words or similar). The default
wordlist is the one found in scowl, for no other reason than that's the
one that was mentioned in the linked issue.
It is possible to specify multiple environment variables as well. This
is for users who need multiple wordlists (such as multilingual users).
Still actively developed and yet stuck on python2. Also marked as
vulnerable and their issue tracker contains yet another security issue
reported in 2021/10 that the upstream hasn't acknowledged yet.
Mind blown.
Closes: #135543, #97274, #97275
a few things should've used buildPackages/nativeBuildInputs to not not require
the host architecture for building docs. tested by building aarch64-linux docs
on x86_64-linux, and the result looks good.
the docs build should work well even when called from a git checkout of
nixpkgs, but should avoid as much work as possible in all cases.
if pkgs.path is already a store path we can avoid copying parts of it
into the docs build sandbox by wrapping pkgs.path in builtins.storePath
this partially solves the problem of "missing description" warnings of the
options doc build being lost by nix build, at the cost of failing builds that
previously ran. an option to disable this behaviour is provided.
most modules can be evaluated for their documentation in a very
restricted environment that doesn't include all of nixpkgs. this
evaluation can then be cached and reused for subsequent builds, merging
only documentation that has changed into the cached set. since nixos
ships with a large number of modules of which only a few are used in any
given config this can save evaluation a huge percentage of nixos
options available in any given config.
in tests of this caching, despite having to copy most of nixos/, saves
about 80% of the time needed to build the system manual, or about two
second on the machine used for testing. build time for a full system
config shrank from 9.4s to 7.4s, while turning documentation off
entirely shortened the build to 7.1s.
