Hello together,
i was using the official wiki page for setting up printer and scanner support on my system which worked very well.
However, i think the wiki mentions an outdated option called services.avahi.nssmdns, which is replaced/renamed by both services.avahi.nssmdns4 and services.avahi.nssmdns6. The old option services.avahi.nssmdns is also not listed on NixOS Search anymore.
After setting up i was using services.avahi.nssmdns in my module first, and while building it showed this message:
sudo nixos-rebuild boot
[sudo: authenticate] Password:
building the system configuration...
evaluation warning: The option `services.avahi.nssmdns' defined in `/etc/nixos/hosts/thomas-PC/configuration.nix' has been renamed to `services.avahi.nssmdns4'.
Not checking switch inhibitors (action = boot)
Done. The new configuration is /nix/store/3kvdybi5brld84dcw6znpppfckh5qsh9-nixos-system-nixos-26.05pre998534.d233902339c0
It was not an error but a warning, and it build successfully though.
The old option is mentioned here:
- https://wiki.nixos.org/wiki/Printing#Printer_sharing
- https://wiki.nixos.org/wiki/Scanners#Network_scanning
I’m still just 18 days into NixOS and i’m not sure how the process of updating wiki pages look like.
Am i supposed to create an account and update it by myself? If so, will this be (hopefully) reviewed by other members before the change going live?
P.S: Thanks to the documentation team for their work. The wiki helps me a lot as a beginner.
