However, how do we handle system

One policy would be to say:
- system wide: Use a Nix package
- user: Under $HOME
That is the lazy option ;-).
My problem is that I want to provide Ruby to biologists, and can not
support all GEMs they will think of.
Is there a way to make a single Nix expression that takes,
er, whatever identifies a Ruby-gem (its name?), as an
argument, and works for all Gems? But Gems that depend on C
libraries, for example, might not be able to work without
explicitly mentioning their dependencies, which can't be
listed in a portable way in the source Gem.
