Subject: * Package conflict resolution through priority levels.  If there is a
   user environment collission between two packages due to overlapping   file
 names, then a package with a higher priority will overwrite the   symlinks of
 a package with a lower priority.  E.g.,

    $ nix-env --set-flag priority 5 gcc
    $ nix-env --set-flag priority 10 binutils

  gives gcc a higher priority than binutils (higher number = lower
  priority).
