@the-kenny did a good job in the past and is set as maintainer in many package,
however since 2017-2018 he stopped contributing. To create less confusion
in pull requests when people try to request his feedback, I removed him as
maintainer from all packages.
And probably on MacOS X and Linux ARM, but I have nowhere to test it.
[Bjørn: The breakage was introduced by 8b1976c7f6
("arduino: 1.0.6 -> 1.6.9 (#17060)").]
Based on @brodul work at
https://github.com/brodul/nixpkgs/tree/arduino-update
Desktop file generation is from #13690
- Solved all download problems. Package/library lists are changing
daily, so I've created my own snapshot of them.
- Prepatch jssc .so inside jar - @brodul mentions that it can be copied
into $HOME while running program.
- Removed some unnecessary dependencies
Tested it by uploading simple sketch to Arduino Uno.
This reverts commit 6ff886e539 because it
doesn't work when chroot builds are enabled (nix.useChroot = true):
$ nix-build -A arduino
these derivations will be built:

BUILD FAILED
Reasoning: without a revert, the build farm cannot produce binaries and
users that build from source, without chroot, cannot trust that they get
a working result (non-deterministic build, depending on how pure the
arduino builder is).
