This commit introduces a new NixOS module `networking.getaddrinfo` to allow
declarative configuration of `/etc/gai.conf`, which controls address
selection behavior for `getaddrinfo(3)` as defined in RFC 3484 and
RFC 6724.
Partially revert #179194 which first filtered
`extraLocaleSettings.LANGUAGE`. Indeed this environment variable is
given precedence according to:
https://www.gnu.org/software/gettext/manual/html_node/Locale-Environment-Variables.html
So using it will simply make all other `extraLocaleSettings` be ignored
in practice, but the OS shouldn't ignore it when aggregating the locales
required in general, as this setup should still be legitimate, and it
may even be useful if you wish to set it by default and use `env -u
LANGUAGE` for some programs.
Previously, when adding a new user when at least two users already exist,
this new user was assigned the same subuid range as the second existing user.
This pulls in another instance of nixpkgs including glibc.
This is both not great from a evaluation perspective and a dependency
closure.
So let's remove this part from nixpkgs again and re-enable it, when we
have slimmed down the build according to `environment.ldso32 = mkIf
pkgs.stdenv.hostPlatform.isx86_64 (mkDefault stub-ld32);`
Format all Nix files using the officially approved formatter,
making the CI check introduced in the previous commit succeed:
nix-build ci -A fmt.check
This is the next step of the of the [implementation](https://github.com/NixOS/nixfmt/issues/153)
of the accepted [RFC 166](https://github.com/NixOS/rfcs/pull/166).
This commit will lead to merge conflicts for a number of PRs,
up to an estimated ~1100 (~33%) among the PRs with activity in the past 2
months, but that should be lower than what it would be without the previous
[partial treewide format](https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/322537).
Merge conflicts caused by this commit can now automatically be resolved while rebasing using the
[auto-rebase script](8616af08d9/maintainers/scripts/auto-rebase).
