distributions may not provide any device nodes (they're all
generated by udev).

image, otherwise the post-installs script of the "passwd" package
will fail because /etc/login.defs is missing. This also fixes the
Ubuntu 8.10 image generation, woohoo!

we run into trouble on Fedora 10 (RPM 4.6), where the default is no
longer /usr/src/something but $HOME/something.

by Pjotr Prins a while back. This could also be used to generate
RPMs for packages that don't have a spec-file.
* Added checkinstall to Nixpkgs. However we don't use our own build
yet because with it "make install" segfaults in a Debian VM, while
the pre-built binary does work.

* Updated Debian 4.0 to r4a. Dropped the revision ("r3", "r4a") from
the attribute name since Debian doesn't seem to keep old revisions
available anyway.

image (i.e., it can contain any OS that obeys the interface
documented in the comment). See `testFreeBSD' for an example that
performs a build of the ATerm library on FreeBSD 7.0. This will be
used in the build farm to perform builds for platforms for which we
cannot synthesize VM images automatically.

* In addition to the `diskImages' set, there now is a `diskImageFuns'
set that holds functions to build a disk image for a specific
distribution, given a list of names of top-level packages that
should be included in the image. This makes it easier to customise
an image (e.g. if you want to build an RPM in an image with some
very specific dependencies that aren't in the default image).
* Added Fedora 6.

expression for a Debian closure automatically (so that we don't have
to remember to regenerate those files ourselves). The `import
<derivation>' feature generally shouldn't be used in Nixpkgs, but
since it's only used in the buildfarm it should be fine.
