Franz Pletz 7f7ebe5bf6 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.

Build Status Issue Stats Issue Stats

Nixpkgs is a collection of packages for the Nix package manager. It is periodically built and tested by the hydra build daemon as so-called channels. To get channel information via git, add nixpkgs-channels as a remote:

% git remote add channels git://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-channels.git

For stability and maximum binary package support, it is recommended to maintain custom changes on top of one of the channels, e.g. nixos-15.09 for the latest release and nixos-unstable for the latest successful build of master:

% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-15.09

For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master.

NixOS linux distribution source code is located inside nixos/ folder.
