(The first version of this change, in commit 39fad297fd, broke
`nix-build -A nixosTests.installer.simpleUefiSystemdBoot`. This is the
2nd version, which hopefully does not break anything.)
`nixos-rebuild build-vm-with-bootloader` currently fails with the
default NixOS EFI configuration:
$ cat >configuration.nix <<EOF
{
fileSystems."/".device = "/dev/sda1";
boot.loader.systemd-boot.enable = true;
boot.loader.efi.canTouchEfiVariables = true;
}
EOF
$ nixos-rebuild build-vm-with-bootloader -I nixos-config=$PWD/configuration.nix -I nixpkgs=https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/archive/nixos-20.09.tar.gz

Fix it by setting virtualisation.useEFIBoot = true when needed.

After:

This corresponds to agetty's --login-options argument.
With this change, I can set
services.getty.autologinUser = "qyliss";
services.getty.loginOptions = "-- \\u";
and have my username prefilled, but with my password still
required (unlike the normal autologinUser behaviour).
b478e0043c5 removed every other instance of uwsgi.service and
httpd.service from Mailman before and requiredBy lists. This one
looks like it was just missed, since I can't see a reason to keep it
but remove the others.
Fixes: b478e0043c5 ("nixos/mailman: refactor")
* It should be made explicit in the eval-error that the CVE only affects
a component which is turned off by default.
* For more clarity, the default version used by the module is noted in
the manual.
Closes#108419
It's been 8.5 years since NixOS used mingetty, but the option was
never renamed (despite the file definining the module being renamed in
9f5051b76c1 ("Rename mingetty module to agetty")).
I've chosen to rename it to services.getty here, rather than
services.agetty, because getty is implemantation-neutral and also the
name of the unit that is generated.
