This release has the following notable changes:

The <option>home.file.<name?>.source</option> now allows source
|
|
files to be hidden, that is, having a name starting with the
|
|
<literal>.</literal> character. It also allows the source file name to
|
|
contain characters not typically allowed for Nix store paths. For example,
|
|
your configuration can now contain things such as
|
|
<programlisting>
|
|
home.file."my file".source = ./. + "/file with spaces!";
|
|
</programlisting>

The type used for the systemd unit options under
|
|
<option>systemd.user.services</option>,
|
|
<option>systemd.user.sockets</option>, etc. has been changed to offer more
|
|
robust merging of configurations. If you don't override values within
|
|
systemd units then you are not affected by this change. Unfortunately, if
|
|
you do override unit values you may encounter errors.

|
|
In particular, if you get an error saying that a <quote>unique
|
|
option</quote> is <quote>defined multiple times</quote> then you need to
|
|
use the
|
|
<code xlink:href="https://nixos.org/nixos/manual/#sec-option-definitions-setting-priorities">mkForce</code>
|
|
function. For example,
|
|
<programlisting language="nix">
|
|
systemd.user.services.foo.Service.ExecStart = "/foo/bar";
|
|
</programlisting>
|
|
becomes
|
|
<programlisting language="nix">
|
|
systemd.user.services.foo.Service.ExecStart = lib.mkForce "/foo/bar";
|
|
</programlisting>
|
|
We had to make this change because the old merging was causing too many
|
|
confusing situations for people.

There is now an option <option>programs.beets.enable</option> that
|
|
defaults to <literal>false</literal>. Before the module would be active if
|
|
the <option>programs.beets.settings</option> option was non-empty.
