* Remove package name
* Start with upper case letter
* Remove trailing period
Also reword some descriptions and move some long descriptions to
longDescription.
I'm not touching generated packages.
There are many more packages to fix, this is just a start.
Rules:
* Don't repeat the package name (not always that easy...)
* Start with capital letter
* Don't end with full stop
* Don't start with "The ..." or "A ..."
I've also added descriptions to some packages and rewritten others.
It turns out I hardcoded the output path that qt's tarball extracts.
But that path is versioned (4.8.5 for example).
As I've already merged x-updates on my own system, my qt version was
different (4.8.4 vs 4.8.5). Made the path-guessing more flexible, so
now it should work with any 4.8.*
Upstream insists on using private qt headers.
We do not want nixpkgs' qt to export those.
So I provided a small hack to take them directly from qt's source tarball.
I made sure everything uses the normal system qt and headers, except for the
1 .so file (qt_hack) that needs these private headers.
Because of this, there is barely any increate in size or buildtime.
Upstream release notes:
- Add Geoclue location provider by Mathieu Trudel-Lapierre.
- Allow brightness to be adjusted (-b).
- Provide option to set color temperature directly (Joe Hillenbrand).
- Add option to show program version (-V).
- Add configure.ac option to install ubuntu icons. They will no longer
be installed by default (Francesco Marella).
- config: Look in %userprofile%/.config/redshift.conf on windows platform.
- Fix: w32gdi: Obtain a new DC handle on every adjustment. This fixes a
bug where redshift stops updating the screen.

Slic3r is a G-code generator for 3D printers.
- Math-Clipper and Boost-Geometry-Utils have been bumped to satisfy
Slic3r.
- Slic3r has problems with perl 5.16 due to a locale issue (comma vs
period in floating point numbers). So we use perl 5.14.
- The tests fail, so we skip them. According to the author of Slic3r,
that should be safe:
"Tests failed because of a typo when the 0.9.10b tag was applied.
You can safely ignore the test results, Slic3r will work."
See https://github.com/alexrj/Slic3r/issues/1303
For reference, the errors look like this:
Use of uninitialized value $deg in numeric eq (==) at /tmp/nix-build-perl-slic3r-0.9.10b.drv-0/git-export/t/../lib/Slic3r/TriangleMesh.pm line 328.
# Looks like your test exited with 255 before it could output anything.
The second failure, and the last one I'm going to try today:
http://hydra.nixos.org/build/5404634
On the bright side there is at least the fact that version 1.4.10 has failed on
Darwin already, so I guess we don't have a lot of Mac users using Synergy.
Latest (failed) build of 1.4.10:

Seems that crypto++ in nixpkgs doesn't build on Darwin, so let's use bundled
crypto++ until the version in nixpkgs works well.
This refers to the following build:
http://hydra.nixos.org/build/5404516
Hopefully, this will fix it on Mac OS X, because I don't have a Darwin machine
for testing.
