The change I merged too hastily in #302300 increases the size by
~30%. This could be improved upon, but in the meantime let's go back
to xz while keeping zstd-compressed firmware (only 4.4% larger) and
_support_ for zstd-compressed modules.
and turn it in to a list.
The current setting of system.forbiddenDependenciesRegex is a string, meaning only one such regex as any additional setting would result in conflicts.
As maintainers have already started using this setting eg. in profiles, it would be good if this setting would accept a list of regex to allow the end
user to make use of it in addition to package maintainers.
This reverts commit e827697fd3.
This seems to cause various issues during system activation, as reported
in https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/302771 for example.
Due to being close to branchoff, revert this for now.
We'll open a tracking issue to collect and sort out remaining issues.
The idea behind that is to enable users and developers of
downstream tools such as home-manager to test Nix master for several
reasons:
* Nix is currently trying to have a `master` branch that's always
releasable[1]. We're still on Nix 2.18 in nixpkgs due to too many
notable regressions. Enabling people to test latest master may help on
that end.
* This uses the most bleeding-edge Nix, but our packaging, so we can
identify issues with our packaging early.
* From what I've seen, most people are using the packages from nixpkgs
anyways instead of the upstream flake, this is far more convenient
anyways.
My plan is to update this once a week. Right now we rely on the
`installCheckPhase` here, but as soon as we have proper regression
testing[2], we may want to add `nixUnstable` there as well (however with
failures being allowed probably).
