The triggers are just arbitrary strings that are included in the unit
under X-Restart-Triggers. The idea is that if they change between
reconfigurations, switch-to-configuration will restart the unit
because its store path changed. This is mostly useful for services
that implicitly depend on generated files in /etc. Thus you can say
restartTriggers = [ confFile ];
where ‘confFile’ is the derivation that generated the /etc file in
question.
Flushing is bad if the Nix store is on a remote filesystem accessed
over that interface.

Also added a interface option ‘prefixLength’ as a better alternative
to ‘subnetMask’.
Instead it's enough to depend on
sys-subsystem-net-devices-<interface>.device, which in turn has a
"wants" dependency on the service (if any) that creates the interface.
For each statically configured interface, we now create a unit
‘<interface>-cfg.service’ which gets started as soon as the network
device comes up. Similarly, each bridge defined in
‘networking.bridges’ and virtual interface in ‘networking.interfaces’
is created by a service ‘<interface>.service’.
So if we have
networking.bridges.br0.interfaces = [ "eth0" "eth1" ];
networking.interfaces =
[ { name = "br0";
ipAddress = "192.168.1.1";
}
];
then there will be a unit ‘br0.service’ that depends on
‘sys-subsystem-net-devices-eth0.device’ and
‘sys-subsystem-net-devices-eth1.device’, and a unit ‘br0-cfg.service’
that depends on ‘sys-subsystem-net-devices-br0.device’.
The special handling for cronjobs should probably move to the cron
module (logcheckIgnore = bool option) in the future, as it's more
natural to just declare a cronjob, and mark it as "log-ignored",
instead of adding cronjobs through logcheck.
But as systemCronjobs is not an attrset yet (just simple strings),
this would require adding an attrset for cronjobs or parsing strings
in the nix language to get hold of the cron-user and command.
So for now, I keep the interface within logcheck's module.
However SLIM is still broken and you have to create a
/usr/lib/dri/fglrx_dri.so symlink pointing to
/run/opengl-driver/lib/fglrx_dri.so
At least fgl_glxgears shows 10 times more frames per second now
This is broken because it requires restarting applications to see new
NSS modules. The proper way to handle NSS modules is through nscd.

The upower daemon needs the gdbus command (which is weird given that
upower links against dbus_glib, but ah well...). This fixes suspend
in KDE with systemd.
