Eelco Dolstra fcad0b0a5a * Cleaned up a lot of description fields that contained newlines.
Some of these should be longDescriptions, but most others just
  shouldn't contain newlines.  E.g. write

    description = "Bla";

  and not

    description = ''
      Bla
    '';

  This pollutes "nix-env -qa --description" output.

Eelco Dolstra 45a2c87402 * Support for mirror:// URLs a la Gentoo (NIXPKGS-70). Instead of
fetchurl {
      url = http://heanet.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/zapping/zapping-0.9.6.tar.bz2;
      md5 = "8306775c6a11de4d72345b5eee970ea6";
    };

  you can write

    fetchurl {
      url = mirror://sourceforge/zapping/zapping-0.9.6.tar.bz2;
      md5 = "8306775c6a11de4d72345b5eee970ea6";
    };

  which causes fetchurl to try the SourceForge mirrors listed in the
  `sourceforge' attribute in build-support/fetchurl/mirrors.nix.
  (They're currently tried in sequence, and the lists of mirrors are
  not configurable yet.)

  The syntax for mirror URLs is mirror://site/path/to/file, where
  `site' is currently one of `sourceforge', `gnu' (mirrors of
  ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu) and `kernel' (mirrors of
  http://www.all.kernel.org/pub/).
