Feb 1, 2025February 2025: Delivered two core improvements in Saghen/nixpkgs: (1) Libvirt START_DELAY becomes configurable via the NixOS module by reading environment variables, enabling more reliable startup timing for libvirt guests (commit 9b87702839a0ac51dabff09a4e458388c0af1c60). (2) iperf3 updated to 3.18 to align with the latest release, including version string and SHA256 hash updates (commit 6c30dfb37276d3e7ef3b886f72fd5d814cb1fa08). These changes improve deployment flexibility, testing fidelity, and maintainability of the nixpkgs repository.
