The following errors occur when you start Chromium prior to this commit:
[2534:2534:0625/202928.673160:ERROR:gl_implementation.cc(246)] Failed to
load .../libexec/chromium/swiftshader/libGLESv2.so:
../libexec/chromium/swiftshader/libGLESv2.so: cannot open shared object
file: No such file or directory
[2534:2534:0625/202928.674434:ERROR:gpu_child_thread.cc(174)] Exiting
GPU process due to errors during initialization
While in theory we do not strictly need libGLESv2.so, in practice this
means that the GPU process isn't starting up at all which in turn leads
to crawling rendering performance on some sites.
So let's install all shared libraries in swiftshader.
I've tested this with the chromium.stable NixOS VM test and also locally
on my machine and the errors as well as the performance issues are gone.

First of all, we need a newer version of Vc, because at least version
1.1.0 is required for Krita 3.1.3.
Also, qtmultimedia and qtx11extras were missing.
Built and tested successfully on my machine.

The merge of the version bump in
6fb9f89238 didn't take care of our patch
for the hardening mode and thus enabling VirtualBox without also
force-disabling hardening mode will result in a build error.
While the patch is largely identical with the old version, I've removed
one particular change around the following code:
if (pFsObjState->Stat.st_mode & S_IWOTH)
return supR3HardenedSetError3(VERR_SUPLIB_WORLD_WRITABLE, pErrInfo,
"World writable: '", pszPath, "'");
In the old version of the patch we have checked whether the path is
within the Nix store and suppressed the error return if that's the case.
The reason why I did that in the first place was because we had a bunch
of symlinks which were writable.
In VirtualBox 5.1.22 the code specifically checks whether the file is a
symlink, so we can safely drop our change.
Tested via all of the "virtualbox" NixOS VM subtests and they now all
succeed.

Packages get --host and --target by default, but can explicitly request
any subset to be passed as needed. See docs for more info.

Since 9c57f3b5c0 bumped the protobuf
version because the new upstream requires it, electrum now gets
protobuf3_0 *and* protobuf3_2 instead of just one version.
This leads to the following build errer:
Found duplicated packages in closure for dependency 'protobuf':
protobuf 3.0.2 (...-python2.7-protobuf-3.0.2/lib/python2.7/site-packages)
protobuf 3.2.0 (...-python2.7-protobuf-3.2.0/lib/python2.7/site-packages)
Using protobuf3_2 for keepkey and electrum fixes the build.

Before one had to turn it on manually and update the preview script in dotfiles
manually when ranger updates.
Now it requires zero configuration. Just run `ranger` and it works, and
should continue to work automagically when ranger updates.
Everything still can be (de)configured via `rc.conf` in dotfiles.
Plugin and QML import paths were previously determined by NIX_PROFILES. Using
PATH instead allows Qt applications to work under nix-shell without further
modification.
- Reduce environment pollution with a separate $bin output containing programs,
plugins, and shared data. Libraries remain in $out and are not installed into
the environment.
- Only propagate build inputs as required.
- Update to version 1.10.867.38-1
- Drop i386 arch. Vivaldi has suspended support for Linux 32-bit for
Vivaldi 1.10. Unfortunately, this is due to Chromium suspending support
for it and maintaining it themselves would take too much resources.
See https://forum.vivaldi.net/post/142489.
- Update dependency on gtk2 to gtk3.
- Move dependency patchelf from buildInputs to nativeBuildInputs.
This should allow us to easily add system-wide Chromium extensions via a
NixOS configuration similar to this:
{ pkgs, ... }: {
environment.pathsToLink = [ "/share/chromium/extensions" ];
environment.systemPackages = [ pkgs.my-shiny-extension ];
}
For more details about what Chromium expects within that directory, see:
https://developer.chrome.com/extensions/external_extensions
I've introduced this because of a personal desire to gain more control
about which extensions are installed and what they are able to do. All
of the extensions I use are free software, but despite that it's useful
to either easily patch them and also prevent unwanted automatic updates.
Tested this using the NixOS "chromium.stable" test on x86_64-linux.

Webcam Logitech C270 showed black screen in zoom, but LD_PRELOADing
v4l1compat.so fixed this. I hope, this wouldn't break camera for people,
who were already able to see video, but I can't be 100% sure currently.
Turns out, zoom couldn't launch QtWebEngineProcess because of wrong interpreter
Also, there was a need for some extra deps, which I found when
running debug version of zoom.
Also updates beta, nightly, nightlyBin, and bootstrap compilers.
Also updates the registry.
Also consolidates logic between bootstrap and nightlyBin compilers.
Also contains some miscellaneous cleanups.
Also patches firefox to build with the newer cargo
XSA-206 Issue Description:
> xenstored supports transactions, such that if writes which would
> invalidate assumptions of a transaction occur, the entire transaction
> fails. Typical response on a failed transaction is to simply retry
> the transaction until it succeeds.
>
> Unprivileged domains may issue writes to xenstore which conflict with
> transactions either of the toolstack or of backends such as the driver
> domain. Depending on the exact timing, repeated writes may cause
> transactions made by these entities to fail indefinitely.

XSA-211 Issue Description:
> When a graphics update command gets passed to the VGA emulator, there
> are 3 possible modes that can be used to update the display:
>
> * blank - Clears the display
> * text - Treats the display as showing text
> * graph - Treats the display as showing graphics
>
> After the display geometry gets changed (i.e., after the CIRRUS VGA
> emulation has resized the display), the VGA emulator will resize the
> console during the next update command. However, when a blank mode is
> also selected during an update, this resize doesn't happen. The resize
> will be properly handled during the next time a non-blank mode is
> selected during an update.
>
> However, other console components - such as the VNC emulation - will
> operate as though this resize had happened. When the display is
> resized to be larger than before, this can result in a heap overflow
> as console components will expect the display buffer to be larger than
> it is currently allocated.

XSA-212 Issue Description:
> The XSA-29 fix introduced an insufficient check on XENMEM_exchange
> input, allowing the caller to drive hypervisor memory accesses outside
> of the guest provided input/output arrays.

XSA-213 Issue Description:
> 64-bit PV guests typically use separate (root) page tables for their
> kernel and user modes. Hypercalls are accessible to guest kernel
> context only, which certain hypercall handlers make assumptions on.
> The IRET hypercall (replacing the identically name CPU instruction)
> is used by guest kernels to transfer control from kernel mode to user
> mode. If such an IRET hypercall is placed in the middle of a multicall
> batch, subsequent operations invoked by the same multicall batch may
> wrongly assume the guest to still be in kernel mode. If one or more of
> these subsequent operations involve operations on page tables, they may
> be using the wrong root page table, confusing internal accounting. As
> a result the guest may gain writable access to some of its page tables.
More: https://xenbits.xen.org/xsa/advisory-213.html
XSA-214 Issue Description:
> The GNTTABOP_transfer operation allows one guest to transfer a page to
> another guest. The internal processing of this, however, does not
> include zapping the previous type of the page being transferred. This
> makes it possible for a PV guest to transfer a page previously used as
> part of a segment descriptor table to another guest while retaining the
> "contains segment descriptors" property.
>
> If the destination guest is a PV one of different bitness, it may gain
> access to segment descriptors it is not normally allowed to have, like
> 64-bit code segments in a 32-bit PV guest.
>
> If the destination guest is a HVM one, that guest may freely alter the
> page contents and then hand the page back to the same or another PV
> guest.
>
> In either case, if the destination PV guest then inserts that page into
> one of its own descriptor tables, the page still having the designated
> type results in validation of its contents being skipped.

XSA-215 Issue Description:
> Under certain special conditions Xen reports an exception resulting
> from returning to guest mode not via ordinary exception entry points,
> but via a so call failsafe callback. This callback, unlike exception
> handlers, takes 4 extra arguments on the stack (the saved data
> selectors DS, ES, FS, and GS). Prior to placing exception or failsafe
> callback frames on the guest kernel stack, Xen checks the linear
> address range to not overlap with hypervisor space. The range spanned
> by that check was mistakenly not covering these extra 4 slots.

Recent commit #c10af9e744c91dff1ccc07a52a0b57d1e4d339f3 changed the
behaviour of wrapPythonPrograms, which caused pygrub to no longer
being wrapped. This commit fixes this.

* firefox-devedition-bin: init at 54.0b14
Firefox DevEdition became a new product of Mozilla and is "repackaged"
Firefox Beta with its own release channel and six weeks release cycle as
other channels. It is no longer being built on nightly basis
* updated the update.nix script to facilitata firefox-devedition-bin
* disabling automatic updates by pointing to non existing channel
* f firefoxWrapper looks for gtk3 attribute to wrap the executable gtk3 to wrap the binary with needed ``XDG_DATA_DIRS``
Including also a patch for bug https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=379433
which is a quite annoying regression from 5.0.4. The patch is the same as
the change committed upstream.
It's necessary to do this in order to fix ckb's compilation, now that
fixupPhase rejects derivation results containing references to the temporary
build directory. It seems like good practice so I've added it to the
other packages that I maintain.
The application requires the main_menubar.glade alongside the
Startup.pdf. Just making sure all required assets are present 😉.
Currently `apvlv` fails with the `(apvlv:16999): Gtk-ERROR **: failed to add UI: Failed to open file '${store-path}-apvlv-0.1.5/share/doc/apvlv/main_menubar.glade': No such file or directory

Move most of wine configurations to winePackages which is not built on Hydra.
Leave two top-level packages:
wine: stable release with an "office" configuration;
wineStaging: staging release with a "full" configuration.
