- KDE Plasma has been updated to v5.27, see [the release notes](https://kde.org/announcements/plasma/5/5.27.0/) for what is changed.
- Python implements [PEP 668](https://peps.python.org/pep-0668/), providing better feedback to users that try to run `pip install` system-wide.
-`nixos-rebuild` now supports an extra `--specialisation` option that can be used to change specialisation for `switch` and `test` commands.

This affects the availability of password hashing algorithms used for system login (`login(1)`, `passwd(1)`), but also Apache2 Basic-Auth, Samba, OpenLDAP, Dovecot, and [many other packages](https://github.com/search?q=repo%3ANixOS%2Fnixpkgs%20libxcrypt&type=code).
