Motivation for this change
BeeGFS is a fantastic high performance file system. However, after running it for a few months last year the meta data daemon kept crashing randomly in production use (support from the manufacturer requires a paid support contract). The current version that is nixpkgs is outdated and I don not want to maintain it any longer. The build system is purely based on make file and is hard to maintain.
Things done
Mark beegfs as broken.
