Iputils no longer provide ping6 and traceroute6. The functionality of

these tools has been integrated into ping and traceroute respectively. To

enforce an address family the new flags <literal>-4</literal> and

|
specifying an interface (for link-local IPv6 for instance) is no longer done

with the <literal>-I</literal> flag, but by encoding the interface into the

address (<literal>ping fe80::1%eth0</literal>).

<literal>jre</literal> now defaults to GTK+ UI by default. This

The Python 2.7 interpreter does not use modules anymore. Instead, all
|
|
CPython interpreters now include the whole standard library except for `tkinter`,

which is available in the Python package set.

Python 2.7, 3.5 and 3.6 are now built deterministically and 3.4 mostly.
|
|
Minor modifications had to be made to the interpreters in order to generate
|

deterministic bytecode. This has security implications and is relevant for
|
|
those using Python in a <literal>nix-shell</literal>. See the Nixpkgs manual
|

for details.

The dnscrypt-proxy service supports synchronizing the list of public
|
|
resolvers without working DNS resolution. This fixes issues caused by the
|
|
resolver list becoming outdated. It also improves the viability of

|
DNSCrypt only configurations.
