Commit 6a214f3e06 copied most of the Nix
shell initialisation code from NixOS to nix-profile.sh; however, that
code assumes a multi-user install and is Linux-specific (e.g. it calls
the "stat" command). So go back to the simple single-user version.
Fixes#49.
Negative lookups are purged from the DB after a day, at most once per
day. However, for non-"have" lookups (e.g. all except "nix-env
-qas"), negative lookups are ignored after one hour. This is to
ensure that you don't have to wait a day for an operation like
"nix-env -i" to start using new binaries in the cache.
Should probably make this configurable.
The outputs of a derivation can refer to each other (even though they
cannot have cycles), so they have to be deleted in the right order.
http://hydra.nixos.org/build/3026118
If the options gc-keep-outputs and gc-keep-derivations are both
enabled, you can get a cycle in the liveness graph. There was a hack
to handle this, but it didn't work with multiple-output derivations,
causing the garbage collector to fail with errors like ‘error: cannot
delete path `...' because it is in use by `...'’. The garbage
collector now handles strongly connected components in the liveness
graph as a unit and decides whether to delete all or none of the paths
in an SCC.
Note that this will only work if the client has a very recent Nix
version (post 15e1b2c223), otherwise the
--option flag will just be ignored.
Fixes#50.
Apparently our DBD::SQLite links against /usr/lib/libsqlite3.dylib,
which is an old version that doesn't respect foreign key constraints.
So manifests/cache.sqlite doesn't get updated properly when a manifest
disappears. We should fix our DBD::SQLite, but in the meantime this
will fix the test.

This handles the chroot and build hook cases, which are easy.
Supporting the non-chroot-build case will require more work (hash
rewriting!).
Issue #21.
"config.h" must be included first, because otherwise the compiler
might not see the right value of _FILE_OFFSET_BITS. We've had this
before; see 705868a8a9. In this case,
GCC would compute a different address for ‘settings.useSubstitutes’ in
misc.cc because of the off_t in ‘settings’.

Output names are now appended to resulting GC symlinks, e.g. by
nix-build. For backwards compatibility, if the output is named "out",
nothing is appended. E.g. doing "nix-build -A foo" on a derivation
that produces outputs "out", "bin" and "dev" will produce symlinks
"./result", "./result-bin" and "./result-dev", respectively.
This is required on systemd, which mounts filesystems as "shared"
subtrees. Changes to shared trees in a private mount namespace are
propagated to the outside world, which is bad.
More precisely, in concatLists, if all lists except one are empty,
then just return the non-empty list. This reduces the number of list
element allocations by 32% when evaluating a NixOS system
configuration.
This can serve as a generic efficient list builder. For instance, the
function ‘catAttrs’ in Nixpkgs can be rewritten from
attr: l: fold (s: l: if hasAttr attr s then [(getAttr attr s)] ++ l else l) [] l
to
attr: l: builtins.concatLists (map (s: if hasAttr attr s then [(getAttr attr s)] else []) l)

The one in Nixpkgs is O(n^2), this one is O(n). Big reduction in the
