(My OCD kicked in today...)
Remove repeated package names, capitalize first word, remove trailing
periods and move overlong descriptions to longDescription.
I also simplified some descriptions as well, when they were particularly
long or technical, often based on Arch Linux' package descriptions.
I've tried to stay away from generated expressions (and I think I
succeeded).
Some specifics worth mentioning:
* cron, has "Vixie Cron" in its description. The "Vixie" part is not
mentioned anywhere else. I kept it in a parenthesis at the end of the
description.
* ctags description started with "Exuberant Ctags ...", and the
"exuberant" part is not mentioned elsewhere. Kept it in a parenthesis
at the end of description.
* nix has the description "The Nix Deployment System". Since that
doesn't really say much what it is/does (especially after removing
the package name!), I changed that to "Powerful package manager that
makes package management reliable and reproducible" (borrowed from
nixos.org).
* Tons of "GNU Foo, Foo is a [the important bits]" descriptions
is changed to just [the important bits]. If the package name doesn't
contain GNU I don't think it's needed to say it in the description
either.
This is due to breaking evaluation; see the PR discussion.

Two imports were added independently on the same line.
I split it as well, as it was very long now.
gnome-boxes is a simple GNOME 3 application to access remote or virtual
systems.
Tested by creating a Ubuntu 14.04 VM from ISO image and playing around
with it. I cannot seem to get keyboard input to the VM. Mouse works
though.
Without this patch, the .la file only added -lncurses without
specifying the nix store path, forcing the propagation
of ncurses as build input.
Also enable parallel building and add myself to the maintainers.
