The nosh package is now up to version 1.37 .
Some of the changes in this release are works in progress, that
you will see fully realized in version 1.38 or later.
Changes include:
-
There is a new chapter in the nosh Guide for those
wishing to make packages and ports of other softwares, or add
service bundle support to existing packages and ports.
-
The external formats configuration import subsystem has been
reorganized a bit.
-
Nothing uses the JAVA_HOME import system any
more, where service bundles explicitly have their JAVA_HOME
variables set by configuration import, although it is
retained. All service bundles instead use the find-matching-jvm
mechanism to auto-detect a JVM matching their chosen
criteria at start time.
-
The per-user services import is now in two parts.
System-wide import sets up a $HOME/.config/service-bundles/convert/
subdirectory for each (real user) user account; and each
user can then use that, which contains a subordinate
per-user configuration import mechanism, to set up imported
per-user service bundles for things.
- Per-user service source files for Desktop Bus and other
services are now in their own subdirectory, as are converted
keyboard maps for the userspace virtual terminals.
-
static-networking external format configuration
import has been enhanced to set up snort@interface
services and to handle ipv6_cpe_wanif and ipv6_activate_all_interfaces
from /etc/rc.conf.
-
There is a new make-read-only-fs chain loading
tool that is a placeholder for now. It is used in some
service bundles generated by the convert-systemd-units
tool, which now recognizes and converts CPUAffinity,
ProtectHome, ProtectSystem, ReadWriteDirectories,
ReadOnlyPaths, and InaccessiblePaths
settings.
-
Per-user management has been augmented, finally fixing the
problem of system-control locating the per-user
manager by giving the per-user manager an optional listening
FIFO open file descriptor, which it uses to listen for
user-wide state change commands. system-control
--user halt/normal/sysinit/&c.
now send commands via this FIFO, and each user's user-services@username
service bundle now uses fifo-listen to set up
the FIFO and creates the per-user-manager/
subdirectory in /run/user.
-
There are some more service bundles in the collection that
comes with the toolset: clickhouse-server, hue, udhcpc-log,
minissdpd, rtkit-daemon, accounts-daemon, gdm3,
speech-dispatcher, gdomap, blueman-mechanism, and sysvipc.
-
The per-user configuration import now recognizes and sets up
per-user service bundles for a whole lot more per-user
services.
-
On FreeBSD/TrueOS systems setup-machine-id now
writes /usr/local/etc/machine-id.
-
The userspace virtual terminal services, the multiplexor and
the terminal emulators, no longer run under the aegis of the daemon
system account. Rather, they now have their own dedicated
accounts under whose aegides they run. To go with that, there
is now a user-vt-realizer group to which users
can be added to grant them realizer (i.e. front-end I/O)
access to the system-wide userspace virtual terminals.
-
A common build problem across several toolsets that occurs if
one has set a CDPATH, has been fixed. Various
tweaks have also been made to make life easier for Archnosh
and ports to other operating systems.
