b762f4df7f* In `fix --instantiate', only print out the hashes of the Nix descriptors generated out of Fix descriptors specified on the command line. This allows us to say:

aa8fda4b54* We no longer use nix-populate standalone, rather we use it as a build action for `system' packages (like system.fix) that have dependencies on all packages we want to activate.

0f40a560ca* Added a script nix-activate which builds a list of "activated" packages (i.e., the packages that should appear in the user's $PATH, and so on). Based on this list, the script nix-populate creates a hierarchy of symlinks to the relevant files in those packages (e.g., for pkg/bin and pkg/lib).

73c53935d0* For efficiency: md5 integrated into nix. * Command nix ensure' which is like nix getpkg' except that if the has refers to a run action it will just ensure that the imports are there. * Command nix closure' to print out the closure of the set of descriptors under the import relation, starting at a set of roots. This can be used for garbage collection (e.g., given a list of activated' packages, we can delete all packages not reachable from those). * Command nix graph' to print out a Dot graph of the dependency graph. * nix-addroot' adds a root for the (unimplemented) garbage collector.

2dc84e5569* Descriptors now have a "system" field specifying the platform that the build or run action should be perfomed on. This ensures that descriptors have different hashes on different platforms.

8d682ba551* A descriptor for running the Pan newsreader. * Added descriptors for gtkspell and its support package pspell. Gtkspell is an optional dependency of Pan, so we should add the ability to nix-instantiate to instantiate variants of a package based on a selection of features.

20d165c344* A command to run programs in Nix packages, that is, to execute a run action. Run actions are described by uniquely hashed descriptors, just like build actions. Therefore run actions can have dependencies, but these need not be the same as the build time dependencies (e.g., at runtime we can link against a different version of a dynamic library). Example:
