/ disk access.

a Haskell library for timed command execution.
For starters, the expression lives in development/libraries/haskell/maybench.
It doesn't really belong there because, though, because, technically, it's an
executable, not a library. If someone has a better idea, please feel free to
move it.

configuration options in ~/.nixpkgs/config.nix. Example:
{
packageOverrides = pkgs: {
subversion = pkgs.subversion.function (origArgs: {
bdbSupport = false;
pythonBindings = !origArgs.pythonBindings;
});
};
}
I.e. pkgs.subversion.function is the original function call to the
Subversion function in all-packages.nix.
This requires the "subversion" attribute to use makeOverridable,
which stores the original function and function arguments in the
"function" attribute of the result.

configuration option. For instance, to override GCC globally for
all of Nixpkgs, you can put the following in ~/.nixpkgs/config.nix:
{
packageOverrides = pkgs: {
gcc = pkgs.gcc41;
}
}
This should make a lot of configuration support in Nixpkgs
unnecessary, like selectVersion and many little-used configuration
options.
It also provides a somewhat convenient place to put custom,
private additions to Nixpkgs, e.g.
{
packageOverrides = pkgs: {
myHello = pkgs.stdenv.mkDerivation {
name = "my-hello-0.1";
buildCommand = ...;
};
};
};
Note that this requires Nix >= 0.12pre12726.
* Removed the `myPackages' option `packageOverrides' obsoletes it.

Setup: ../LICENSE: copyFile: does not exist (No such file or directory)
I'm not sure where this comes from. Also, it seems that passing haxr-th the
library haxr as a build input doesn't suffice; it also needs to be passed the
libraries that haxr depends on to configure successfully. Something isn't
right. Andreas, do you know how to fix this?

Also added support for expat library (used by the graph library). This package
should probably be built on the compile farm because it takes quite a while to
complete, even on a fast machine. Having pre-built binaries would be very nice.

fetchurl instantiations, instead of passing the mirrors to fetchurl
instantiations via environment variables. This makes the resulting
store derivations (.drv files) much smaller, which in turn makes
nix-env/nix-instantiate faster (4.8 -> 4.2 seconds on nix-env -qa
--out-path).
