Overview of the updated versions:
stable: 49.0.2623.87 -> 49.0.2623.110
beta: 50.0.2661.26 -> 50.0.2661.49
dev: 50.0.2661.18 -> 51.0.2693.2
Most notably, this includes a series of urgent security fixes:

found here:

Beta and stable could be also affected, although I didn't do a detailed
check whether that's the case.
As this introduces Chromium 51 as the dev version, I had to make the
following changes to make it build:
* libexif got removed, so let's do that on our end as well.
See https://codereview.chromium.org/1803883002 for details.
* Chromium doesn't seem to compile with our version of libpng, so let's
resort to the bundled libpng for now.
* site_engagement_ui.cc uses isnan outside of std namespace, so
we're fixing that in postPatch using sed.
I have successfully built all versions on i686-linux and x86_64-linux
and tested it using the VM tests.

Fixes: #14299
I originally wanted to do this a long time (a31301d) but IIRC back then
it didn't compile. Nowadays with the splitup of the gold linking flags
and the binutils integration, it's merely just a switch to flip, so
let's do that.
Only tested it by building against the current Chromium stable version
on 64bit, because right now builds on Hydra seem to time out (because of
this?) anyway so we have nothing to lose here.
The linking time was hereby reduced from >30 minutes (I didn't measure
it exactly but looked half an hour later to the build progress and it
was *still* linking) to about a few seconds, which I guess is even
though the measurement is quite bogus a tremendous improvement
nonetheless.

Commit aa097946d2 only fixed evaluation.
Ssince 37dbd62 however, the fetchurl call is already implied so just
changing the path will still result in fetchurl (fetchurl ...), so let's
drop the outer fetchurl.

Fixes#12794 by reverting the source tree splitup (c92dbff) to use the
source tarball directly into the main Chromium derivation and making the
whole source/ subdirectory obsolete. The reasons for this are explained
in 4f981b4f84.
This also now renames the "sources.nix" file to "upstream-info.nix",
which is a more proper name for the file, because it not only contains
"source code" but also the Chrome binaries needed for the proprietary
plugins (of course "source" could also mean "where to get it", but I
wanted to avoid this ambiguity entirely).
I have successfully built and tested this using the VM tests.
All results can be found here:
https://headcounter.org/hydra/eval/313435
As of 6041cfe, the upstream-info.nix (back then it was called
sources.nix) is no longer in the source/ subdirectory, so we need to fix
that comment to say that the file is autogenerated from update.sh in the
*same* directory.

This reverts commit 5979946c41.
I have tested this by building against the stable version of Chromium
and it seems to compile just fine, so it doesn't seem to be needed
anymore.

Only a aesthetics thingy, but also corrects the comment, because we're
essentially precompiling .py files, NOT the .pyc files (the latter are
the results).

This addresses #12794 so that we now have only a single tarball where we
base our build on instead of splitting the source into different outputs
first and then reference the outputs.
The reason I did this in the first place is that we previously built the
sandbox as a different derivation and unpacking the whole source tree
just for building the sandbox was a bit too much.
As we now have namespaces sandbox built in by default we no longer have
that derivation anymore. It still might come up however if we want to
build NaCl as a separate derivation (see #8560), but splitting the
source code into things only NaCl might require is already too much work
and doesn't weight out the benefits.
Another issue with the source splitup is that Hydra now has an output
limit for non-fixed-output derivations which we're already hitting.
Tested the build against the stable channel and it went well, but I
haven't tested running the browser.

We always do something like "fetchurl channelProduct", so let's move it
to getChannel directly so we can avoid those fetchurl calls all over the
place.
Also, we can still access subattributes from the fetchurl call if we
need to, so there really is no need to expose the product's attributes
directly.

Yes, I know I'm a bit nitpicky, but lines >80 chars are very ugly if you
have two windows side-by-side.
Thus no feature changes here.

We now should have only the default.nix left in the source directory and
we can start to factor out the pieces into the Chromium main derivation
attributes.

The "sources.nix" also contains information about where to get binary
packages, so calling it "upstream-info.nix" fits better in terms of
naming.
Also, we're moving it away from the sources dir, because the latter will
soon vanish.

We're going to reference the patches in the Chromium main build rather
than applying it to the sources. So as a first step, this should keep
the patches away from the "source" subdirectory so we can make it flat.

We were previously getting collissions for the following
2 files with files from the dropbox package:
- bin/dropbox
- share/applications/dropbox.desktop
As a consequence the binary has been renamed to dropbox-cli and
the .desktop removed as it is redundant.
This is just a minor upgrade, even though the commit message says it's
to major version 50. However, the CVEs listed there are for real, see
the following announcement:
http://googlechromereleases.blogspot.de/2016/03/stable-channel-update_8.html
The summary of updated packages:
stable: 49.0.2623.75 -> 49.0.2623.87
beta: 49.0.2623.75 -> 50.0.2661.26
dev: 50.0.2661.11 -> 50.0.2661.18
I've also added two commits, fixing the chdir() in the updater and
shutting up Python precompilation errors during the preBuild phase.

Changing the working directory to

The errors are completely non-fatal and only cause a particular file to
be not precompiled. Unfortunately this can lead to confusion to whether
these errors are real errors or not, so let's shut it up completely
because they're *not* real errors.

As of version 2.92, transmission-cli is no longer built by default (it
is deprecated). This breaks the bittorrent vmtest. For now, explicitly
enable the cli.
Commit 4a54794d18 upgraded Thunderbird's
version to 38.6.0 (accidentally?), but didn't change the hash. This
wasn't caught due to tarballs.nixos.org being keyed on hash only.
rq only compiles with ruby 1.8 which we don't distribute anymore.
the source is dead.
there is a 1.9 branch over https://github.com/pjotrp/rq that hasn't been

Also, the 32bit Chrome package needed for the Flash and Widevine plugins
doesn't exist anymore, because Google has dropped support for 32bit
distros, see here for the announcement:
https://groups.google.com/a/chromium.org/forum/#!topic/chromium-dev/FoE6sL-p6oU
On our end, we need to fix the patch for the plugin paths to work for
the latest dev channel. The change is very minor, because the
nix_plugin_paths_46.patch only doesn't apply because of an iOS-related
ifdef.

Comparing the current version with the version in sources list and
accidentally swapping the version arguments isn't going to get very far
because every new version that will come up will then be treated as "we
already have that version".
So we're now using versionOlder and also a check whether the version is
the *same* as the one in sources.nix.

No changes in functionality, but to make future source updates a bit
easier on the eyes when viewing the diff.
Signed-off-by: aszlig <aszlig@redmoonstudios.org>
The update.sh shell script now is only a call to nix-build, which does
all the hard work of updating the Chromium source channels and the
plugins. It results in a store path with the new sources.nix that
replaces the already existing sources.nix.
Along the way, this has led to a quite massive workaround, which abuses
MD5 collisions to detect whether an URL is existing, because something
like builtins.tryEval (builtins.fetchurl url) unfortunately doesn't
work. Further explanations and implementation details are documented in
the actual implementation.
The drawback of this is that we don't have nice status messages anymore,
but on the upside we have a more robust generation of the sources.nix
file, which now also should work properly on missing upstream
sources/binaries.
This also makes it much easier to implement fetching non-GNU/Linux
versions of Chromium and we have all values from omahaproxy available as
an attribute set (see the csv2nix and channels attributes in the update
attribute).

As stated in the parent commit, the 32bit Chrome package is not
available upstream, so let's at least provide the SHA256 hash for the
64bit package.
Signed-off-by: aszlig <aszlig@redmoonstudios.org>
Until now, if we have a failure to fetch either the 32bit Debian package
or the 64bit Debian package, neither of these will be put into
sources.nix.
Unfortunately the beta/dev channels do not have a 32bit Debian package,
so even though there is a 64bit Debian package available we don't get
plugins *at* *all*.
This also introduces a nicer error message rather than just failing with
an assertion in fetchurl because we did not provide url/urls.

Python has not been made optional due to the additional complexity of:
- python2 vs python3
- pync support on Darwin
Making Python support optional should be revisited at another time.
