We're going to implement an option which allows us to turn off stateful handling of Diffie-Hellman parameter files by putting them into the Nix store. However, modules now might need a way to reference these files, so we add a now path option to every param specified, which carries a read-only value of the path where to find the corresponding DH params file. I've also improved the description of security.dhparams.params a bit so that it uses <warning/> and <note/>. The NixOS VM test also reflects this change and checks whether the old way to specify the bit size still works. Signed-off-by: aszlig <aszlig@nix.build> Cc: @Ekleog
Nixpkgs is a collection of packages for the Nix package manager. It is periodically built and tested by the Hydra build daemon as so-called channels. To get channel information via git, add nixpkgs-channels as a remote:
% git remote add channels git://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-channels.git
For stability and maximum binary package support, it is recommended to maintain
custom changes on top of one of the channels, e.g. nixos-18.03 for the latest
release and nixos-unstable for the latest successful build of master:
% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-18.03
For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master.
NixOS Linux distribution source code is located inside
nixos/ folder.
