[Nix-dev] pkgs/lib out of nixpkgs

Hello,

what would you think of taking pkgs/lib out of nixpkgs, and having
that in another place? Nixos uses that pkgs/lib for many
non-pkg-related functions, and the latest nixos development has been
quite linked with that of pkgs/lib.

I think that having pkgs/lib apart would allow a bigger window between
nixos and nixpkgs versions.

Have you thought about that, and you agreed not to split the lib from nixpkgs?

Regards,
Lluís.
