Regression introduced by 4dcb685af9.
Unsetting the environment variable shortly before using it is not going
to end up very well, so let's just filter out the variable from the
output of export and unset it shortly afterwards.
This fixes the runInMachine NixOS test.

See #18319 for details. Starting network-online.target manually does not
work as it hangs indefinitely.
Additionally, don't treat avahi and dhcpcd special and sync their systemd units
with the respective upstream suggestion.
The extraOptions option has default values which seems surprising. This
moves those values to startupOptions (which is what gocd-agent uses) and
empties out the default extraOptions.
The gocd-agent startupOptions description was also changed to remove the
mention of the example (given there isn't one).
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.
Radicale can run as a foreground service and will then emits logging and
errors on the standard output. This helps the logging end up in the
systemd journal.
This partially reverts commit ab9537ca22.
From the manpage of systemd-nspawn(1):
Note that systemd-nspawn will mount file systems private to the
container to /dev, /run and similar.
Testing this in a shell turns out:
$ sudo systemd-nspawn --bind-ro=/nix/store "$(readlink "$(which ls)")" /proc

Container aszlig exited successfully.
So the test on whether PID 1 exists in /proc is enough, because if we
use PID namespaces there actually _is_ a PID 1 (as shown above) and the
special file systems are already mounted. A test on the $containers
variable actually mounts them twice.
This unbreaks NixOS containers and I've tested this against the
containers-imperative NixOS test.

The loopback-based tests use a storage size of 102400 blocks (one block
is 1024 bytes), which doesn't seem to fit for btrfs volumes in recent
btrfs versions. I'm setting this to 409600 (400 MB) now so that it
should be enough for later versions in case they need even more space
for subvolumes.

abdc5961c3: Fix starting the firewall
e090701e2d: Order before sysinit
Solely use sysinit.target here instead of multi-user.target because we
want to make sure that the iptables rules are applied *before* any
socket units are started.
The reason I've dropped the wantedBy on multi-user.target is that
sysinit.target is already a part of the dependency chain of
multi-user.target.
To make sure that this holds true, I've added a small test case to
ensure that during switch of the configuration the firewall.service is
considered as well.
Tested using the firewall NixOS test.

Probably as a result of 992c514a20, it
was not being started anymore.
My understanding of systemd.special(7) (section "Special passive
system units") is that the firewall should want network-pre.target,
rather than the other way around (not very intuitive...). This in
itself does not cause the firewall to be wanted, which is why the
wanted-by relationship with multi-user.target is necessary.

This partially reverts commit 0aa7520670.
Fine for rsync to be in system path but we still need the explicit path
in nixos-install in case it is invoked from non-NixOS systems and also
to fix OVA test failure

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.
It appears that packageOverrides no longer overrides aliases, so
aliases like
dbus_tools = self.dbus.out;
dbus_daemon = self.dbus.daemon;
now use the old, non-overriden version of dbus. That seems like a
pretty serious regression in general, but for this particular problem,
I've fixed it by replacing dbus_daemon by dbus.daemon and dbus_tools
by dbus.
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.

With the multi output, postgresql cannot find at runtime what is its
basedir when looking for libdir and pkglibdir. This commit fixes that.
Before this commit updating /var/setuid-wrappers/ folder introduced
a small window where NixOS activation scripts could be terminated
and resulted into empty /var/setuid-wrappers/ folder.
That's very unfortunate because one might lose sudo binary.
Instead we use two atomic operations mv and ln (as described in
https://axialcorps.com/2013/07/03/atomically-replacing-files-and-directories/)
to achieve atomicity.
Since /var/setuid-wrappers is not a directory anymore, tmpfs mountpoints
were removed in installation scripts and in boot process.
Tested:
- upgrade /var/setuid-wrappers/ from folder to a symlink
- make sure /run/setuid-wrappers-dirs/ legacy symlink is really deleted
Add code to accountsservice that returns an error if the environment
variable NIXOS_USERS_PURE is set. This variable is set from the nixos
accountsservice module if mutableUsers = false
Both btrfs-progs and utillinux are ~5MB, we may discuss in future
to handle this better but I see no better way at the moment than
increaing purity in the install process.
OnCalendar entrys can be specified multiple times in a systemd timer, to
make more complex scheduling possible.
Tested by manually checking the timer generated by the following:
systemd = {
services.huhu = {
description = "meh";
wantedBy = [ "default.target" ];
serviceConfig.ExecStart = "/bin/sh -c 'printf HUHU!'";
startAt = [ "*:*:0/30" "*:0/1:15" ];
};
};
It prints HUHU to the log at seconds 0, 15 and 30 of each minute.
This was one of the ways to build packages, we are trying
hard to minimize different ways so it's easier for newcomers
to learn only one way.
This also:
- removes texLive (old), fixes#14807
- removed upstream-updater, if that code is still used it should be in
separate repo
- changes a few packages like gitit/mit-scheme to use new texlive
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.
Previously it was only set once, now it is enforced on each start-up of
redis.service. Also set _ownership_ recursively, so that the
/var/lib/redis/dump.rdb file is guaranteed to be accessible by the
currently configured redis user.
Fixes issue #9687, where redis wouldn't start because /var/lib/redis had
wrong owner.
A new internal config option `fileSystems.<name>.early` is added to indicate
that the filesystem needs to be loaded very early (i.e. in initrd). They are
transformed to a shell script in `system.build.earlyMountScript` with calls to
an undefined `specialMount` function, which is expected to be caller-specific.
This option is used by stage-1, stage-2 and activation script to set up and
remount those filesystems. Options for them are updated according to systemd
defaults.
Fixes#13927

Useful for installing NixOS in place on another distro. For instance:
$ nix-env -iE '_: with import <nixpkgs/nixos> { configuration = {}; }; with config.system.build; [ nixos-generate-config manual.manpages ]'
$ sudo mkdir /etc/nixos
$ sudo `which nixos-generate-config`
… edit the configuration files in /etc/nixos using man configuration.nix
if needed
maybe add: users.extraUsers.root.initialHashedPassword = "" ?
… Build the entire NixOS system and link it to the system profile:
$ nix-env -p /nix/var/nix/profiles/system -f '<nixpkgs/nixos>' -A system --set
… If you were using a single user install:
$ sudo chown -R 0.0 /nix
… NixOS is about to take over
$ sudo touch /etc/NIXOS
$ sudo touch /etc/NIXOS_LUSTRATE
… Let's keep the configuration files we just created
$ echo etc/nixos | sudo tee -a /etc/NIXOS_LUSTRATE
$ sudo mv -v /boot /boot.bak &&
sudo /nix/var/nix/profiles/system/bin/switch-to-configuration boot
$ sudo reboot
… NixOS boots, Stage 1 moves all the old distro stuff in /old-root.

Test plan:
* Check that `fonts.fontconfig.ultimate.preset` changes things;
* Check that `fonts.fontconfig.dpi` changes things;
* Check that `fonts.fontconfig.defaultFonts.monospace` changes things;
Tested with AbiWord, mousepad and Firefox.
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.
Before commit 54fa0cfe4e, the `redshift`
service was run with the environment variable `DISPLAY` set to `:0`.
Commit 54fa0cfe4e changed this to
instead use the value of the `services.xserver.display` configuration
option in the value of the `DISPLAY` variable. In so doing, no default
value was provided for the case where `services.xserver.display` is
`null`.
While the default value of `services.xserver.display` is `0`, use of
which by the `redshift` module would result in `DISPLAY` again being
set to `:0`, `services.xserver.display` may also be `null`, to which
value it is set by, e.g., the `lightdm` module.
In the case that `services.xserver.display` is `null`, with the change
made in commit 54fa0cfe4e, the `DISPLAY`
variable in the environment of the `redshift` service would be set to
`:` (a single colon), which, according to my personal experience,
would result in —
- the `redshift` service failing to start; and
- systemd repeatedly attempting to restart the `redshift` service,
looping indefinitely, while the hapless `redshift` spews error
messages into the journal.
It can be observed that the malformed value of `DISPLAY` is likely at
fault for this issue by executing the following commands in an
ordinary shell, with a suitable `redshift` executable, and the X11
display not already tinted:
- `redshift -O 2500` — This command should reduce the color
temperature of the display (making it more reddish).
- `DISPLAY=':' redshift -O 6500` — This command should raise the
color temperature back up, were it not for the `DISPLAY`
environment variable being set to `:` for it, which should cause
it to, instead, fail with several error messages.
This commit attempts to fix this issue by having the `DISPLAY`
environment variable for the `redshift` service default to its old
value of `:0` in the case that `services.xserver.display` is `null`.
I have tested this solution on NixOS, albeit without the benefit of a
system with multiple displays.
gdnc is a user process and can't be made into a NixOS module very
easily. It can still be put in the user's login script. According to the
GNUstep documentation it will be started as soon as it is needed.
