··· 236 - The `intel` driver for the X server (`services.xserver.videoDrives = [ "intel" ]`) is no longer functional due to incompatibilities with the latest Mesa version. 237 All users are strongly encouraged to switch to the generic `modesetting` driver (the default one) whenever possible, for more information see the manual chapter on [Intel Graphics](#sec-x11--graphics-cards-intel) and issue [#342763](https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/342763). 238 239 - The `(buildPythonPackage { ... }).override` and `(buildPythonPackage { ... }).overrideDerivation` attributes is now deprecated and removed in favour of `overridePythonAttrs` and `lib.overrideDerivation`. 240 This change does not affect the override interface of most Python packages, as [`<pkg>.override`](https://nixos.org/manual/nixpkgs/unstable/#sec-pkg-override) provided by `callPackage` shadows such a locally-defined `override` attribute. 241 The `<pkg>.overrideDerivation` attribute of Python packages called with `callPackage` will also remain available after this change.
