- GCC has been updated from GCC 14 to GCC 15.
|
||||
This introduces some backwards incompatible changes; Refer to the [upstream porting guide](https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-15/porting_to.html) for details.
|

|
||||
- `glibc` has been updated to version 2.42.
|
||||
|
||||
This version no longer makes the stack executable when a shared library requires this. A symptom
|
||||
is an error like
|
||||
|
||||
> cannot enable executable stack as shared object requires: Invalid argument
|
||||
|
||||
This is usually a bug. Please consider reporting it to the software maintainers.
|
||||
|
||||
In a lot of cases, the library requires the execstack by mistake only. The following workarounds exist:
|
||||
|
||||
* When building the shared library in question from source, use the following linker flags to force turning off the
|
||||
executable flag:
|
||||
|
||||
```nix
|
||||
mkDerivation {
|
||||
# …
|
||||
|
||||
env.NIX_LDFLAGS = "-z,noexecstack";
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
* If the sources are not available, the execstack-flag can be cleared with `patchelf`:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
patchelf --clear-execstack binary-only.so
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
* If the shared library to be loaded actually requires an executable stack and it isn't turned
|
||||
on by the application loading it, you may force allowing that behavior by setting the
|
||||
following environment variable:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
GLIBC_TUNABLES=glibc.rtld.execstack=2
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Do not set this globally!** This makes your setup inherently less secure.

- The `nodePackages` package set has been removed entirely from nixpkgs. This package set was created to ease the maintenance burden of maintaining lots of

NodeJS-based packages within nixpkgs, but became a burden itself. Over the past several releases, there has been a focus on removing it in favor of the more modern nixpkgs packaging strategies.

After a long time, this package set has been deprecated and removed. If you are using its package set in your own config, please use the top-level packages instead.(i.e `pkgs.package-name` instead of `pkgs.nodePackages.package-name`).

- `kratos` has been updated from 1.3.1 to [25.4.0](https://github.com/ory/kratos/releases/tag/v25.4.0). Upstream switched to a new versioning scheme (year.major.minor). Notable breaking changes:

- The `migrate sql` CLI command is now `migrate sql up`

- OIDC registration validation errors are now placed in the `default` node group instead of `oidc`

All users who wish to continue using the GUI should install the `gephgui-wry`, which is consistent with the official release version.

- `xfsprogs` was updated to version 6.18.0, which enables parent pointers and exchange-range by default. Upstream recommends not to use these features with kernels older than 6.18.

GRUB2 is likely unable to boot from filesystems with these features enabled.

- Switch inhibitors were introduced, which add a pre-switch check that compares a list of strings between the previous and the new generation, and refuses to switch into the new generation when there is a difference between the two lists. This allows avoiding switching into a system when for instance the systemd version changed by adding `config.systemd.package.version` to the switch inhibitors for your system. You can still forcefully switch into any generation by setting `NIXOS_NO_CHECK=1`.
