This is the master branch of nixpkgs, initially pulled from commit 8debf2f9a63d54ae4f28994290437ba54c681c7b
The intent of this repo is to be merged onto nixpkgs master. This will also be of help for https://git.suyu.dev/BoomMicrophone/suyu-nix-test
which I will need in order for development (it will also be helpful to know what to do for setting up the environment for the master server. Currently I am focusing on this so I can actually see what is still missing)
This repo will be removed once the PR to the nixpkgs github goes through

This brings in the new stable version 54 which also introduces a lot of security fixes: CVE-2016-5198: Out of bounds memory access in V8 CVE-2016-5181: Universal XSS in Blink CVE-2016-5182: Heap overflow in Blink CVE-2016-5183: Use after free in PDFium CVE-2016-5184: Use after free in PDFium CVE-2016-5185: Use after free in Blink CVE-2016-5187: URL spoofing CVE-2016-5188: UI spoofing CVE-2016-5192: Cross-origin bypass in Blink CVE-2016-5189: URL spoofing CVE-2016-5186: Out of bounds read in DevTools CVE-2016-5191: Universal XSS in Bookmarks CVE-2016-5190: Use after free in Internals CVE-2016-5193: Scheme bypass Detailed announcements about these changes can be found here (latest to oldest): https://googlechromereleases.blogspot.de/2016/11/stable-channel-update-for-desktop.html https://googlechromereleases.blogspot.de/2016/10/stable-channel-update-for-desktop_20.html https://googlechromereleases.blogspot.de/2016/10/stable-channel-update-for-desktop.html The update process of Chromium has been a bit bumpy on our side, because version 54 also did the switch from GYP to GN so it wasn't just a matter of updating the upstream-info file. I've tested the Flash plugin (which runs fine) and WideVine manually, although I couldn't get WideVine to work (I was running this within a VM though). So if people want to use WideVine they need to use Chrome instead until we got this sorted out. VM test results along with builds for all platforms can be found here: https://headcounter.org/hydra/eval/339328 I'm going to backport these changes to stable as soon as the tests/builds succeed there as well.

Nixpkgs is a collection of packages for the Nix package manager. It is periodically built and tested by the hydra build daemon as so-called channels. To get channel information via git, add nixpkgs-channels as a remote:
% git remote add channels git://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-channels.git
For stability and maximum binary package support, it is recommended to maintain
custom changes on top of one of the channels, e.g. nixos-16.09
for the latest
release and nixos-unstable
for the latest successful build of master:
% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-16.09
For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master
.
NixOS linux distribution source code is located inside
nixos/
folder.
