libccd has the common bug of assuming CMAKE_INSTALL_*DIR is relative. I have
submitted the fix upstream, but don't have much hope of getting it merged
because there have been no updates since 2018.
For now you had to know that the actions are retried for 900s when
seeing an error like
> Traceback (most recent call last):

> Exception: action timed out
in your (hydra) build failure. Due to the absence of timestamps you were
left guessing if the machine was just slow, someone passed a low timeout
value (which they couldn't until now) or whatever might have happened.
By making this error a bit more descriptive (by including the elapsed
time) these hopefully become more useful.
Usually, on the stable channel, we have a nss_latest attribute that is
more up to date than the nss attribute (which is usually frozen during
branch-off and only receives security updates). Cacerts are a sensitive
matter and should be updated more frequently than the stable NSS package,
if required. By making the update script aware of the nss_latest
attribute we can prefer that when it exists.
By having this change in the unstable branch of Nixpgks we can carry it
from release to release without requiring more churn from those doing
the stable release maintenance.
iptables is currently defined in `all-packages.nix` to be
iptables-compat. That package does however not contain `ethertypes`.
Only `iptables-nftables-compat` contains this file so the symlink
dangles.
