Also add --all, which shows the value of all options. Diffing the --all
output on either side of contemplated changes is a lovely way to better
understand what's going on inside nixos.
This adds support for deploying to remote hosts without being root:
sudo nixos-rebuild --target-host non-root@host
Without this change, only root@host is able to deploy.
The idea is that if the local command is run with sudo, so should the
remote one, thus there is no need for adding any CLI options.
Slim is abandoned and won't work with wayland.
It's in our best interest to use the display-manager
that makes most sense for Plasma5, sddm.
We've already moved on from it being default in #30890
and the graphical.nix profile, which the virtualbox profile uses,
has sddm anyway.
I have `users.defaultUserShell = pkgs.fish;` set on my server and when I ran `nixos-rebuild switch --target-host …`, the command failed with the following error:
fish: Unsupported use of '='. To run 'nix-store' with a modified environment, please use 'env PATH=… nix-store…'
That is because fish requires env to set environment variables for a program. It should also work on other shells.
This reverts commit 66967ec7521d065f605795d64ddbbbd4fcd448c3, reversing

Fixes#70442; discussion: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/70027
This sets networking.useDHCP to false and for all interfaces found the
per-interface useDHCP to true. This replicates the current default
behaviour and prepares for the switch to networkd.
There's many reason why it is and is going to
continue to be difficult to do this:
1. All display-managers (excluding slim) default PAM rules
disallow root auto login.
2. We can't use wayland
3. We have to use system-wide pulseaudio
4. It could break applications in the session.
This happened to dolphin in plasma5
in the past.
This is a growing technical debt, let's just use
passwordless sudo.
This will keep configuration configuring the size of the /boot partition
still build, while showing the deprecation warning.
In 99.9% of cases I assume ignoring the configuration is better, as the
sd-image builder already is pretty opinionated in that matter.
The slack, seemingly, accounted for more than the minimum required for
slack plus the two partitions.
This change makes the gap a somewhat abstracted amount, but is not
configurable within the derivation.
