- `go-mockery` has been updated to v3. For migration instructions see the [upstream documentation](https://vektra.github.io/mockery/latest/v3/). If v2 is still required `go-mockery_v2` has been added but will be removed on or before 2029-12-31 in-line with it's [upstream support lifecycle](https://vektra.github.io/mockery/



- NixOS display manager modules now strictly use tty1, where many of them previously used tty7. Options to configure display managers' VT have been dropped. A configuration with a display manager enabled will not start `getty@tty1.service`, even if the system is forced to boot into `multi-user.target` instead of `graphical.target`.
