- `gitlab` 16 deprecates the use of external container registries, in our case `pkgs.docker-distribution`. Module users who have [`services.gitlab.registry.enable`](#opt-services.gitlab.registry.enable) set to `true` are advised to back up their state and switch to gitlab's fork by setting [`services.gitlab.registry.package`](#opt-services.gitlab.registry.package) to `pkgs.gitlab-container-registry`.

- `fail2ban` has been updated to 1.0.2, which has a few breaking changes compared to 0.11.2 ([changelog for 1.0.1](https://github.com/fail2ban/fail2ban/blob/1.0.1/ChangeLog), [changelog for 1.0.2](https://github.com/fail2ban/fail2ban/blob/1.0.2/ChangeLog))

- `albert` has been updated from 0.17.6 to 0.20.13, and 0.18.0 changed the config format and many plugins ([changelog for 0.18.0](https://github.com/albertlauncher/albert/blob/v0.18.0/CHANGELOG.md))

- `dokuwiki` has been updated from 2023-07-31a (Igor) to 2023-04-04 (Jack Jackrum), which has [completely removed](https://www.dokuwiki.org/changes#release_2023-04-04_jack_jackrum) the options to embed HTML and PHP for security reasons. The [htmlok plugin](https://www.dokuwiki.org/plugin:htmlok) can be used to regain this functionality.

- The old unsupported version 6.x of the ELK-stack and Elastic beats have been removed. Use OpenSearch instead.

- The `cosmoc` package has been removed. The upstream scripts in `cosmocc` should be used instead.

- Qt 5.12 and 5.14 have been removed, as the corresponding branches have been EOL upstream for a long time. This affected under 10 packages in nixpkgs, largely unmaintained upstream as well, however, out-of-tree package expressions may need to be updated manually.

- The [services.wordpress.sites.<name>.plugins](#opt-services.wordpress.sites._name_.plugins) and [services.wordpress.sites.<name>.themes](#opt-services.wordpress.sites._name_.themes) options have been converted from sets to attribute sets to allow for consumers to specify explicit install paths via attribute name.

- `protonmail-bridge` package has been updated to major version 3.

- Nebula now runs as a system user and group created for each nebula network, using the `CAP_NET_ADMIN` ambient capability on launch rather than starting as root. Ensure that any files each Nebula instance needs to access are owned by the correct user and group, by default `nebula-${networkName}`.

- The `i18n.inputMethod.fcitx` option has been replaced with `i18n.inputMethod.fcitx5` because fcitx 4 `pkgs.fcitx` has been removed.

- In `mastodon` it is now necessary to specify location of file with `PostgreSQL` database password. In `services.mastodon.database.passwordFile` parameter default value `/var/lib/mastodon/secrets/db-password` has been changed to `null`.

- The `nix.readOnlyStore` option has been renamed to `boot.readOnlyNixStore` to clarify that it configures the NixOS boot process, not the Nix daemon.

- The latest available version of Nextcloud is v26 (available as `pkgs.nextcloud26`) which uses PHP 8.2 as interpreter by default. The installation logic is as follows:
  - If `system.stateVersion` is >=23.05, `pkgs.nextcloud26` will be installed by default.
  - If `system.stateVersion` is >=22.11, `pkgs.nextcloud25` will be installed by default.
  - Please note that an upgrade from v24 (or older) to v26 directly is not possible. Please upgrade to `nextcloud25` (or earlier) first. Nextcloud prohibits skipping major versions while upgrading. You can upgrade by declaring [`services.nextcloud.package = pkgs.nextcloud25;`](options.html#opt-services.nextcloud.package).
  - It's recommended to use the latest version available (i.e. v26) and to specify that using `services.nextcloud.package`.

- .NET 5.0 and .NET 3.1 were removed due to being end-of-life, use a newer, supported .NET version. Visit the  [Support Policy](https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/platform/support/policy/dotnet-core) for more information.

- The iputils package, which is installed by default, no longer provides the
Title: System Package Updates and Breaking Changes
Summary
This document outlines numerous software updates, removals, and configuration changes. Key updates include: GitLab 16 now requires `pkgs.gitlab-container-registry`; Fail2ban 1.0.2 introduces breaking changes; Albert 0.20.13 updates config format; DokuWiki 2023-04-04 removes HTML/PHP embedding (regainable via `htmlok` plugin). Several packages were removed due to EOL: ELK-stack 6.x, `cosmoc`, Qt 5.12/5.14, and .NET 5.0/3.1. Configuration changes affect: WordPress plugin/theme options (now attribute sets); Protonmail-bridge (major version 3); Nebula (runs as system user, requires ownership checks); Fcitx (replaced by Fcitx5); Mastodon (requires PostgreSQL password file); `nix.readOnlyStore` (renamed to `boot.readOnlyNixStore`). Nextcloud defaults to v26 with PHP 8.2 for `stateVersion >=23.05`, but prohibits direct skips across major versions. The `iputils` package also has reduced functionality.
