nixpkgs manual: Fix license strings docs
...
The wrong usage of unfree-redistributable fixed in
ea242619fb
can be explaind by unclear
documention, specifically the section in the nixpkgs manual describing
generic licenses it is written to use attributes from `stdenv.lib.licenses`
but in the list the strings form was documented without quotation marks.
This confuses people because the package builds fine locally but failes
the tests on travis-ci.

DOC: Overview of Nixpkgs/channels/Hydra/tests ( close #11263 )
...
What I missed when I began using Nix and NixOS was a clear overview of
how packages, channels, Hydra, the master branch and updates to channels
relate to each other.
I've noticed I am not the only one, given the amount of times these
questions pop up.
For now I propose to include this in the Nixpkgs manual, since this
seems to be the best fit. However, I think it would be good to include
this in either a new manual, i.e., a user manual, or an 'official'
tutorial.

Merge branch 'staging'
...
It seemed very fine on Hydra before it was cancelled due to glibc rebuild,
in particular the nixpkgs unstable job succeeded except for
bootstrap-tarball tests which should be fine after ee994dfae6
.
Therefore, let's avoid another mass rebuild by merging now when we don't
have binaries for master anyway.

Enable separate debug info

You can now pass

binaries and stored in the "debug" output. The advantage is that it
enables installing lean binaries, while still having the ability to

Unify NixOS and Nixpkgs channel structure

This is primarily to ensure that
-I nixpkgs=https://nixos.org/channels/nixos-unstable/nixexprs.tar.xz
and
-I nixpkgs=https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-channels/archive/nixos-unstable.tar.gz
and
-I nixpkgs=https://nixos.org/channels/nixpkgs-unstable/nixexprs.tar.xz
behave consistently.
It also allows installing packages via "nix-env -iA nixos.<pkg>"
rather than "nixos.pkgs.<pkg>". It would be even better to allow
"nixpkgs.<pkg>", but that requires a change to nix-channel.

Add a setup hook that automatically sets up $CLASSPATH
...
All JARs in $pkg/share/java (for each $pkg in the build inputs) are
added to $CLASSPATH. Thus, you can say
buildInputs = [ setJavaClassPath someJavaDependency ];
and the JARs in someJavaDependency will be found automatically by
tools like javac or ant.
Note that the manual used to say that JARs should be installed in
lib/java; this is now share/java, following the Debian policy:
http://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/java-policy/x110.html
The directory share/java makes more sense because JARs are
architecture-independent. (Also, a quick grep shows that we were not
exactly consistent about this in Nixpkgs.)

Only show/build a package on the platforms listed in meta.platforms
...
The function ‘mkDerivation’ now checks whether the current platform
type is included in a package's meta.platform field. If not, it
throws an exception:
$ nix-build -A linux --argstr system x86_64-darwin
error: user-thrown exception: the package ‘linux-3.10.15’ is not supported on ‘x86_64-darwin’
These packages also no longer show up in ‘nix-env -qa’ output. This
means, for instance, that the number of packages shown on
x86_64-freebsd has dropped from 9268 to 4764.
Since meta.platforms was also used to prevent Hydra from building some
packages, there now is a new attribute meta.hydraPlatforms listing the
platforms on which Hydra should build the package (which defaults to
meta.platforms).

Synchronized stdenv-updates branch with trunk.

There were conflicting patches of pkgs/os-specific/linux/module-init-tools.
Apparently, the expression was updated independently in both branches. I've
resolved the conflict by preferring the patches from stdenv-updates, because
those patches appeared to be more sophisticated, i.e. they build the manual,
etc.
