Eelco Dolstra c45cf3a28e * In the jobs attribute, support a more high-level way of specifying
jobs, e.g. (from the nscd job)

    { name = "nscd";

      description = "Name Service Cache Daemon";

      startOn = "startup";
      stopOn = "shutdown";

      environment = { LD_LIBRARY_PATH = nssModulesPath; };
        
      preStart =
        ''
          mkdir -m 0755 -p /var/run/nscd
          mkdir -m 0755 -p /var/db/nscd
        '';

      exec = "${pkgs.glibc}/sbin/nscd -f ${./nscd.conf} -d 2> /dev/null";
    };

  The Upstart job is generated from this.  The main goal is to provide
  some abstraction from the Upstart syntax.  For instance, this should
  make it easier to upgrade to newer versions of Upstart, to switch to
  an entirely different process management system (e.g. initng or
  launchd), or to test a job independantly from Upstart.  (However the
  startOn and stopOn attributes are tied to Upstart's event model.)

Eelco Dolstra dba1d48b78 * Move the uid/gid mappings into a module. This allows other modules
to use it through config.ids.{uids,gids} rather than `import
  relative-path/ids.nix'.

Eelco Dolstra 5ebdee3577 * Continued refactoring the tree: moved most Upstart jobs (namely
those that run daemons) to modules/services.  This probably broke
  some things since there are a few relative paths in modules
  (e.g. imports of system/ids.nix).
* Moved some PAM modules out of etc/pam.d to the directories of NixOS
  modules that use them.
