This is the first step to upstream nixos-facter-modules into
nixpkgs/nixos:
https://github.com/numtide/nixos-facter-modules/
We tried to stick close to the semantics nixos-generate-config + some
extra features. We choose a new prefix for hardware.facter to live in so
that existing users of nixos-facter-modules can continue using it while
the upstreaming is in progress.
The reason for upstreaming is to make it easier to have nixos-facter as
choice for hardware detection as part of our normal NixOS installation workflow.
Hardware from my experience takes many hands since it is hard to test
without having access to a large variety of hardware.
We hope that with nixos-facter we can reduce the boiler code required in
the nixos-hardware project and provide better out-of-the-box support,
even if a model has not been explicitly added to nixos-hardware.
I.e. unlike ubuntu we don't have support for detecting required GPU
drivers. We believe that nixos-hardware will be still required for some
vendor specific quirks, but we could in future automatically select the
profiles based on reported SKU from facter.

Use `tssUser` option value for FAPI log directory user in
systemd-tmpfiles rules, instead of hardcoding `tss`.
If `security.tpm2.abrmd.enable = false` (default), `tssUser` is root.
Fixes systemd-tmpfiles-resetup error:
/etc/tmpfiles.d/00-nixos.conf:<ln>: Failed to resolve user 'tss': No such process
Use the same template as every year to guide people through the upgrade.
Also, put the stuff into the NixOS release notes: the only deployment
way for the package that we truly support is via the module. I think
this shows again what a remarkably bad idea this separation is IMHO.
Closes#243203
This hasn't changed in years because nobody maintains it. Considering
the amount of updates in the meantime to the nginx configuration, I'm
pretty sure that this doesn't work anymore.
I think it's OK to keep the part about how to really disable nginx, but
that's it.
The reason this also closes#243203 is that config in the manual saw
zero maintenance and I don't expect that to change. This should really
be maintained by interested people in a community wiki.
