Since ssh-dss is no longer supported by default, users relying on those keys for their login may be locked out. They should ideally use stronger keys, but adding the support for ssh-dss back in can also be done through extraConfig.
To build the manual, you need Nix installed on your system (no need
for NixOS). To install Nix, follow the instructions at
https://nixos.org/nix/download.html
When you have Nix on your system, in the root directory of the project
(i.e., `nixpkgs`), run:
nix-build nixos/release.nix -A manual.x86_64-linux
When this command successfully finishes, it will tell you where the
manual got generated.
