- The `vscode-extensions.ionide.ionide-fsharp` package has been updated to 6.0.0 and now requires .NET 6.0.

- The `phpPackages.box` package has been updated from 2.7.5 to 3.16.0. See the [upgrade guide](https://github.com/box-project/box/blob/master/UPGRADE.md#from-27-to-30) for more details.

- The `zrepl` package has been updated from 0.4.0 to 0.5:

  - The RPC protocol version was bumped; all zrepl daemons in a setup must be updated and restarted before replication can resume.
  - A bug involving encrypt-on-receive has been fixed. Read the [zrepl documentation](https://zrepl.github.io/configuration/sendrecvoptions.html#job-recv-options-placeholder) and check the output of `zfs get -r encryption,zrepl:placeholder PATH_TO_ROOTFS` on the receiver.

- The `polybar` package has been updated from 3.5.7 to 3.6.2. See [the changelog](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/releases/tag/3.6.0) for more details.
  - Breaking changes include changes to escaping rules in configuration values, changes in behavior when encountering invalid tag names, and changes to inter-process-messaging (IPC).

- Renamed option `services.openssh.challengeResponseAuthentication` to `services.openssh.kbdInteractiveAuthentication`.
  Reason is that the old name has been deprecated upstream.
  Using the old option name will still work, but produce a warning.

- `services.autorandr` now allows for adding hooks and profiles declaratively.

- The `pomerium-cli` command has been moved out of the `pomerium` package into
  the `pomerium-cli` package, following upstream's repository split. If you are
  using the `pomerium-cli` command, you should now install the `pomerium-cli`
  package.

- The option `services.networking.networkmanager.enableFccUnlock`
  was added to support FCC unlock procedures. Since release 1.18.4, the ModemManager
  daemon no longer automatically performs the FCC unlock procedure by default. See
  [the docs](https://modemmanager.org/docs/modemmanager/fcc-unlock/) for more details.

- `programs.tmux` has a new option `plugins` that accepts a list of packages from the `tmuxPlugins` group. The specified packages are added to the system and loaded by `tmux`.

- The polkit service, available at `security.polkit.enable`, is now disabled by default. It will automatically be enabled through services and desktop environments as needed.

- `mercury` was updated to 22.01.1, which has some breaking changes ([Mercury 22.01 news](https://dl.mercurylang.org/release/release-notes-22.01.html)).

- xfsprogs was update to version 5.15, which enables inobtcount and bigtime by default on filesystem creation. Support for these features was added in kernel 5.10 and deemed stable in kernel 5.15.
  If you want to be able to mount XFS filesystems created with this release of xfsprogs on kernel releases older than 5.10, you need to format them with `mkfs.xfs -m bigtime=0 -m inobtcount=0`.

- `services.xserver.desktopManager.xfce` now includes Xfce's screen locker, `xfce4-screensaver` that is enabled by default. You can disable it by setting `false` to [services.xserver.desktopManager.xfce.enableScreensaver](#opt-services.xserver.desktopManager.xfce.enableScreensaver).

- The `hadoop` package has added support for `aarch64-linux` and `aarch64-darwin` as of 3.3.1 ([#158613](https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/158613)).
