contains arbitrary information about a package, like this:
meta = {
homepage = "http://gcc.gnu.org/";
license = "GPL/LGPL";
description = "GNU Compiler Collection, 4.0.x";
};
The "meta" attribute is not passed to the actual derivation
operation, so it's not a dependency --- changes to "meta" attributes
don't trigger a recompilation.
Now we have to standardise some useful attributes ;-)
