Buildbot no longer supports Python 2, as support was dropped upstream in
|
|
version 2.0.0. Configurations may need to be modified to make them
|
|
compatible with Python 3.

PostgreSQL now uses
|
|
<filename class="directory">/run/postgresql</filename> as its socket
|
|
directory instead of <filename class="directory">/tmp</filename>. So
|
|
if you run an application like eg. Nextcloud, where you need to use
|
|
the Unix socket path as the database host name, you need to change it
|
|
accordingly.

The <option>documentation</option> module gained an option named
|
|
<option>documentation.nixos.includeAllModules</option> which makes the
|
|
generated <citerefentry>
|
|
<refentrytitle>configuration.nix</refentrytitle>
|
|
<manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry> manual page include all options
|
|
from all NixOS modules included in a given
|
|
<literal>configuration.nix</literal> configuration file. Currently, it is
|
|
set to <literal>false</literal> by default as enabling it frequently
|
|
prevents evaluation. But the plan is to eventually have it set to
|
|
<literal>true</literal> by default. Please set it to
|
|
<literal>true</literal> now in your <literal>configuration.nix</literal>
|
|
and fix all the bugs it uncovers.

The <literal>vlc</literal> package gained support for Chromecast
|
|
streaming, enabled by default. TCP port 8010 must be open for it to work,
|
|
so something like <literal>networking.firewall.allowedTCPPorts = [ 8010
|
|
];</literal> may be required in your configuration. Also consider enabling
|
|
<link xlink:href="https://nixos.wiki/wiki/Accelerated_Video_Playback">
|
|
Accelerated Video Playback</link> for better transcoding performance.
