Robert Helgesson c90c30dd1e nix-generate-from-cpan: large refactor
This commit includes a substantial refactoring of
`nix-generate-from-cpan`. This somewhat simplifies the code through the
use of the CPAN::Meta module while adding the following features:

 - The program now takes an optional maintainer on the command line that
   is subsequently added into the generated package.

 - An attempt is made to convert the license specified inside the
   META.json or META.yaml file to a license in `stdenv.lib.licenses`.

 - An attempt is made to disambiguate attribute names of packages whose
   name is a reserved word in Nix.

 - Write logging output using Log::Log4perl.

 - Print module RSS feed URL. The RSS feed, hosted by MetaCPAN, can be
   used to track updates to the module.

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.
