8eed07cda4 nix-env -q --out-path: Support multiple outputs
We now print all output paths of a package, e.g.

  openssl-1.0.0i  bin=/nix/store/gq2mvh0wb9l90djvsagln3aqywqmr6vl-openssl-1.0.0i-bin;man=/nix/store/7zwf5r5hsdarl3n86dasvb4chm2xzw9n-openssl-1.0.0i-man;/nix/store/cj7xvk7fjp9q887359j75pw3pzjfmqf1-openssl-1.0.0i

or (in XML mode)

  <item attrPath="openssl" name="openssl-1.0.0i" system="x86_64-linux">
    <output name="bin" path="/nix/store/gq2mvh0wb9l90djvsagln3aqywqmr6vl-openssl-1.0.0i-bin" />
    <output name="man" path="/nix/store/7zwf5r5hsdarl3n86dasvb4chm2xzw9n-openssl-1.0.0i-man" />
    <output name="out" path="/nix/store/cj7xvk7fjp9q887359j75pw3pzjfmqf1-openssl-1.0.0i" />

70f75be199 getDerivation(): Don't always quietly ignore assertion failure
Ignoring assertion failures makes some sense for nix-env -qa, but not
for nix-instantiate/nix-build or hydra-eval-jobs.

812fae424e * DrvInfo contains pointers to expressions, so DrvInfos should be
traced by the garbage collector.  Otherwise "nix-env -u" can crash
  randomly.

41c45a9b31 * Store Value nodes outside of attribute sets. I.e., Attr now stores
a pointer to a Value, rather than the Value directly.  This improves
  the effectiveness of garbage collection a lot: if the Value is
  stored inside the set directly, then any live pointer to the Value
  causes all other attributes in the set to be live as well.

705868a8a9 * Make sure that config.h is included before the system headers,
because it defines _FILE_OFFSET_BITS.  Without this, on 
  OpenSolaris the system headers define it to be 32, and then 
  the 32-bit stat() ends up being called with a 64-bit "struct 
  stat", or vice versa.

  This also ensures that we get 64-bit file sizes everywhere.

* Remove the redundant call to stat() in parseExprFromFile().
  The file cannot be a symlink because that's the exit condition
  of the loop before.

fe2d869e04 * Store user environment manifests as a Nix expression in
$out/manifest.nix rather than as an ATerm.

  (Hm, I thought I committed this two days ago...)

749dd97a54 * Support integers and lists of strings in meta fields. This is
useful for fields like meta.maintainers, meta.priority (which can be
  a proper integer now) and even meta.license (if there are multiple
  licenses).

a9d15d4f43 * nix-env -i: instead of breaking package ties by version, break them
by priority and version install.  That is, if there are multiple
  packages with the same name, then pick the package with the highest
  priority, and only use the version if there are multiple packages
  with the same priority.

  This makes it possible to mark specific versions/variant in Nixpkgs
  more or less desirable than others.  A typical example would be a
  beta version of some package (e.g., "gcc-4.2.0rc1") which should not
  be installed even though it is the highest version, except when it
  is explicitly selected (e.g., "nix-env -i gcc-4.2.0rc1").

* Idem for nix-env -u, only the semantics are a bit trickier since we
  also need to take into account the priority of the currently
  installed package (we never upgrade to a lower priority, unless
  --always is given).

451dbf687f * nix-env now maintains meta info (from the `meta' derivation
attribute) about installed packages in user environments.  Thus, an
  operation like `nix-env -q --description' shows useful information
  not only on available packages but also on installed packages.

* nix-env now passes the entire manifest as an argument to the Nix
  expression of the user environment builder (not just a list of
  paths), so that in particular the user environment builder has
  access to the meta attributes.
  
* New operation `--set-flag' in nix-env to change meta info of
  installed packages.  This will be useful to pass per-package
  policies to the user environment builder (e.g., how to resolve
  collision or whether to disable a package (NIX-80)) or upgrade
  policies in nix-env (e.g., that a package should be "masked", that
  is, left untouched by upgrade actions).  Example:

  $ nix-env --set-flag enabled false ghc-6.4

0e6dc72a7a * Applied rbroek's patch from the branch at
https://svn.cs.uu.nl:12443/repos/trace/buildfarm-control/trunk/ext/nix/,
  with some modifications.  This allows `nix-env -qa' to show the
  attribute path that can be used to unambiguously install a package
  using `nix-env -i -A'.  Example:

    $ nix-env -f top-level/all-packages.nix -qaA subversion xorg-server
    subversionWithJava  subversion-1.2.3
    subversion          subversion-1.3.2
    subversion14        subversion-1.4.0pre-rc1
    xorg.xorgserver     xorg-server-1.1.0

37d1b1cafd * `nix-env -qa --description' shows human-readable descriptions of
packages (provided that they have a `meta.description' attribute).
  E.g.,

  $ ./src/nix-env/nix-env -qa --description gcc
  gcc-4.0.2   GNU Compiler Collection, 4.0.x (cross-compiler for sparc-linux)
  gcc-4.0.2   GNU Compiler Collection, 4.0.x (cross-compiler for mips-linux)
  gcc-4.0.2   GNU Compiler Collection, 4.0.x (cross-compiler for arm-linux)
  gcc-4.0.2   GNU Compiler Collection, 4.0.x

c6120352b3 * In nix-instantiate, allow us to specify a "path" to the
derivation(s) we're interested, e.g.,

    $ nix-instantiate ./all-packages.nix --attr xlibs.libX11

  List elements can also be selected:

    $ nix-instantiate ./build-for-release.nix --attr 0.subversion

  This allows a non-ambiguous specification of a derivation.  Of
  course, this should also be added to nix-env and nix-build.
