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.

For users of NixOS 17.09, you will first need to upgrade Nix by setting

<literal>nix.package = pkgs.nixStable2;</literal> and run

<command>nixos-rebuild switch</command> as the <literal>root</literal>

For users of a daemon-less Nix installation on Linux or macOS, you can
|
|
upgrade Nix by running <command>curl https://nixos.org/nix/install |

sh</command>, or prior to doing a channel update, running
|
|
<command>nix-env -iA nix</command>.

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.

The Syncthing state and configuration data has been moved from

<varname>services.syncthing.dataDir</varname> to the newly defined

<varname>services.syncthing.configDir</varname>, which default to

<literal>/var/lib/syncthing/.config/syncthing</literal>.

This change makes possible to share synced directories using ACLs

without Syncthing resetting the permission on every start.

TrueCrypt volumes. Note that <literal>cryptsetup</literal> also

supports loading TrueCrypt volumes.
