Eelco Dolstra 8846465934 * Get garbage collection and cache population to work *properly*. 
Renamed `fstateRefs' to `fstateRequisites'.  The semantics of this
  function is that it returns a list of all paths necessary to realise
  a given expression.  For a derive expression, this is the union of
  requisites of the inputs; for a slice expression, it is the path of
  each element in the slice.  Also included are the paths of the
  expressions themselves.  Optionally, one can also include the
  requisites of successor expressions (to recycle intermediate
  results).

* `nix-switch' now distinguishes between an expression and its normal
  form.  Usually, only the normal form is registered as a root of the
  garbage collector.  With the `--source-root' flag, it will also
  register the original expression as a root.

* `nix-collect-garbage' now has a flag `--keep-successors' which
  causes successors not to be included in the list of garbage paths.

* `nix-collect-garbage' now has a flag `--invert' which will print all
  paths that should *not* be garbage collected.

README 

Overview
========

Nix is a package manager, deployment system, and component glue
mechanism.


Prerequisites
=============

* Berkeley DB 4.0.14
* CWI ATerm 2.0


Installation
============

* When building from the Subversion repository, first do:

    autoreconf -i

* To build, do:

    ./configure
    make
    make install

  Note that this will install to /nix, which is the default prefix.
  You can specify another prefix, but this is not recommended if you
  want to use prebuilt packages from other sources.


Usage
=====
