adding an attribute "password" that defines the default password for
an account. The default (null, as opposed to the empty string)
means not to set a password.

into one argument "modules".
* release.nix: fixed the manual job.
* ISO generation: break an infinite recursion. Don't know why this
suddenly happens. Probably because of the nixpkgs.config change,
but I don't see why. Maybe the option evaluation is too strict.

be set from the NixOS configuration. For instance, you can say
nixpkgs.config.firefox.enableGeckoMediaPlayer = true;
environment.systemPackages = [ pkgs.firefox ];
but the more interesting application is to apply global overrides to
Nixpkgs throughout NixOS, e.g.
nixpkgs.config.packageOverrides = pkgs:
{ glibc = pkgs.glibc27;
gcc = pkgs.gcc42;
};
would build the whole system with Glibc 2.7 and GCC 4.2. (There are
some issues with "useFromStdenv" in all-packages.nix that need to be
fixed for packages in the stdenv bootstrap though.)
The implementation of this option is kind of evil though due to the
need to prevent a circularity between the evaluation of
nixpkgs.config and the "pkgs" module argument.

separate module, which just declares a configuration value that
causes the xinetd module to add it to xinetd.conf. Also Nixified
the service declarations to abstract over the inetd implementation.
* Renamed the services.xinetd.tftpd options to services.tftpd. The
fact that the tftpd module uses xinetd is an implementation detail.
* xinetd: use -dontfork to let Upstart monitor it, and use -syslog to
get error messages at startup.

* Let ConsoleKit track the current logins instead of pam_console.
Udev now takes care of setting the device permissions to the active
user. This works much better, since pam_console wouldn't apply
permissions to new (hot-plugged) devices. Also, the udev+ConsoleKit
approach supports user switching. (We don't have that for X yet,
but it already works for logins on virtual consoles: if you switch
between different users on differents VCs with Alt+Fn, the device
ownership will be changed automatically.)

the bus daemon can start on demand). ConsoleKit and PolicyKit need
this. This requires a setuid wrapper for dbus-daemon-launch-helper,
as well as a "messagebus" group.

programs require that the mode is 4550 so that execution of the
setuid program can be restricted to members of a group.
* setuid-wrappers: remove a race condition in the creation of the
wrappers if the ownership or mode was different than root:root and
4555.
* setuid-wrappers: allow the full path of the wrapped program to be
specified, rather than looking it up in $PATH.

For instance, the SLiM module simply declares:

users can be added to that group if necessary).
