<para>
<literal>carnix</literal> and <literal>cratesIO</literal> has
been removed due to being unmaintained, use alternatives such

instead.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
<literal>checkInputs</literal> have been renamed to
<literal>nativeCheckInputs</literal>, because they behave the
same as <literal>nativeBuildInputs</literal> when
<literal>doCheck</literal> is set.
<literal>checkInputs</literal> now denote a new type of
dependencies, added to <literal>buildInputs</literal> when
<literal>doCheck</literal> is set. As a rule of thumb,
<literal>nativeCheckInputs</literal> are tools on
<literal>$PATH</literal> used during the tests, and
<literal>checkInputs</literal> are libraries which are linked
to executables built as part of the tests. Similarly,
<literal>installCheckInputs</literal> are renamed to
<literal>nativeInstallCheckInputs</literal>, corresponding to
<literal>nativeBuildInputs</literal>, and
<literal>installCheckInputs</literal> are a new type of
dependencies added to <literal>buildInputs</literal> when
<literal>doInstallCheck</literal> is set. (Note that this
change will not cause breakage to derivations with
<literal>strictDeps</literal> unset, which are most packages
except python, rust, ocaml and go packages).
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
<literal>buildDunePackage</literal> now defaults to
<literal>strictDeps = true</literal> which means that any
library should go into <literal>buildInputs</literal> or
<literal>checkInputs</literal>. Any executable that is run on
the building machine should go into
<literal>nativeBuildInputs</literal> or
<literal>nativeCheckInputs</literal> respectively. Example of
executables are <literal>ocaml</literal>,
<literal>findlib</literal> and <literal>menhir</literal>. PPXs
are libraries which are built by dune and should therefore not
go into <literal>nativeBuildInputs</literal>.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
<literal>borgbackup</literal> module now has an option for
inhibiting system sleep while backups are running, defaulting
to off (not inhibiting sleep), available as
<link linkend="opt-services.borgbackup.jobs._name_.inhibitsSleep"><literal>services.borgbackup.jobs.<name>.inhibitsSleep</literal></link>.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
<literal>podman</literal> now uses the
<literal>netavark</literal> network stack. Users will need to
delete all of their local containers, images, volumes, etc, by
running <literal>podman system reset --force</literal> once
before upgrading their systems.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
<literal>git-bug</literal> has been updated to at least

The <literal>services.kubo.settings</literal> option is now no
longer stateful. If you changed any of the options in

removed them from your NixOS configuration again, those
changes are still in your Kubo configuration file but will now
be reset to the default. If you’re unsure, you may want to
make a backup of your configuration file (probably

The EC2 image module no longer fetches instance metadata in
stage-1. This results in a significantly smaller initramfs,
since network drivers no longer need to be included, and
faster boots, since metadata fetching can happen in parallel
with startup of other services. This breaks services which
rely on metadata being present by the time stage-2 is entered.
Anything which reads EC2 metadata from
<literal>/etc/ec2-metadata</literal> should now have an
<literal>after</literal> dependency on

This means if your storage was created with the old format,
minio will no longer start. Unfortunately minio doesn’t
provide a an automatic migration, they only provide
<link xlink:href="https://min.io/docs/minio/windows/operations/install-deploy-manage/migrate-fs-gateway.html">instructions
