When upgrading from a previous release, please be aware of the following
incompatible changes:

Buildbot no longer supports Python 2, as support was dropped upstream in
version 2.0.0. Configurations may need to be modified to make them
compatible with Python 3.

<para>
PostgreSQL now uses
<filename class="directory">/run/postgresql</filename> as its socket
directory instead of <filename class="directory">/tmp</filename>. So
if you run an application like eg. Nextcloud, where you need to use
the Unix socket path as the database host name, you need to change it
accordingly.

<title>Other Notable Changes</title>

<para>
The <option>documentation</option> module gained an option named
<option>documentation.nixos.includeAllModules</option> which makes the
generated <citerefentry>
<refentrytitle>configuration.nix</refentrytitle>
<manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry> manual page include all options
from all NixOS modules included in a given
<literal>configuration.nix</literal> configuration file. Currently, it is
set to <literal>false</literal> by default as enabling it frequently
prevents evaluation. But the plan is to eventually have it set to
<literal>true</literal> by default. Please set it to
<literal>true</literal> now in your <literal>configuration.nix</literal>
and fix all the bugs it uncovers.
</para>

<listitem>
<para>
The <literal>vlc</literal> package gained support for Chromecast
streaming, enabled by default. TCP port 8010 must be open for it to work,
so something like <literal>networking.firewall.allowedTCPPorts = [ 8010
];</literal> may be required in your configuration. Also consider enabling
<link xlink:href="https://nixos.wiki/wiki/Accelerated_Video_Playback">
Accelerated Video Playback</link> for better transcoding performance.
