Note: instead of this we could also quote strings in nixos-option properly, however I'm not sure if the issue I experienced is actually expected behavior.

Motivation for this change

nixos-option evals the description and the '`' is used to
define shell commands.

Due to this, the following error appears:

$ nixos-option services.postgresql.superUser
Value:
"root"

Default:
"root"

Description:

/run/current-system/sw/bin/nixos-option: line 294: root: command not found
/run/current-system/sw/bin/nixos-option: line 294: postgres: command not found
NixOS traditionally used  as superuser, most other distros use .
From 17.09 we also try to follow this standard. Internal since changing this value
would lead to breakage while setting up databases.
Things done
  • Tested using sandboxing (nix.useSandbox on NixOS, or option build-use-sandbox in nix.conf on non-NixOS)
  • Built on platform(s)
    • NixOS
    • macOS
    • other Linux distributions
  • Tested via one or more NixOS test(s) if existing and applicable for the change (look inside nixos/tests)
  • Tested compilation of all pkgs that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nox --run "nox-review wip"
  • Tested execution of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.

We should definitely also fix nixos-option.
