* A garbage collector for installed packages. nix-collect-garbage

Browse source 
doesn't actually delete any packages, it just prints their
  descriptor hashes.  So we can do

    nix info $(nix-collect-garbage)

  to print out the ids of the packages that would be deleted, and

    nix delpkg $(nix-collect-garbage)

  to actually delete them.
