can be found here:

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:

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.

Fixes: #13665
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.

@edolstra:
“IIRC, the "KDE integration" consists mainly in providing a Qt/KDE "File
open" dialog, which we can probably live without. In fact, it has been
known to malfunction if Libreoffice's KDE version is different from the
system KDE version.
So disabling this sounds like a good idea.”
`*.desktop` file now:
- Refers to an icon.
- Is placed in the proper category (based on comparison with `keepassx2`.
- Has proper mime type (also based on comparison).
Also, now use `icoutils` to extract icons from the application ressouces
and transform them from `*.ico` to `*.png`. Created and used a generic
script that has the ability to move the extracted `*.png` to their
appropriate standard freedesktop location.
Tested this on nixos. `keepass` now has a icon and is categorized
in the same bin as `keepassx2`. The program still execute and
function prefectly.
- Replace non freedesktop `CAD` desktop category
by categories taken from debian's desktop item.
This make the desktop items appear under the
`Graphic` category in DE menus instead of `Others`.
- Moved to new package icons as specified by
upstream release notes.
- Moved to icon name instead of full path to
a single icon as specified by freedesktop
specification.
- Human readable desktop item names.

guests with HDA emulation (5.0.12 regression)
* Audio: don't crash if the backend is unable to initialize
* Audio: fixed audio capture on Mac OS X
* Storage: fixed a possible crash when attaching the same ISO image
multiple times to the same VM
* BIOS: properly report if two floppy drives are attached
* USB: fixed a problem with filters which would not capture the device
under certain circumstances (5.0.10 regression)
* ExtPack: black-list Extension Packs older than 4.3.30 due to
incompatible changes not being properly handled in the past
* Windows hosts: fixed a regression which caused robocopy to fail
* Linux hosts: properly create the /sbin/rcvboxdrv symbolic link (5.0.12
regression)

The reason I was reluctant to merge this before were these symbol lookup

However, after testing it against 5.0.12, the same errors occur there as
well, so it is likely related to our VM tests.
