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.

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

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.

Fixes: #12840
Related to: 61042a561042a5 changes the replaced token from $something to @something@. This
commit repeats that change in one additional location used by the
WideVine plugin
There is already a pull request from @colemickens, who has just reversed
the variable references $flash and $flashVersion but the fix is kinda
fragile as he points out himself in #12713.
The reason the wrong substition was made is that both variables begin
with the same name and we do a simple replace instead of a more
complicated one using builtins.match.
So staying simple but to still not raising issues with other variables
that begin with the same name I'm now using @var@ instead, like we use
in substituteAll and other substituters (like the ones in CMake or
autotools) deal with it.
Note that I'm not using $var$ here to make sure it doesn't get confused
with real shell variables.
So with this fix in place, the wrapper now has the following flags:
--ppapi-flash-path=/nix/store/.../lib/libpepflashplayer.so
--ppapi-flash-version=20.0.0.294
Previously we had (#12710):
--ppapi-flash-path=/nix/store/.../lib/libpepflashplayer.so
--ppapi-flash-version=/nix/store/...-binary-plugins-flashVersion

This has been introduced by me in 690a845 and discovered by @vcunat in
his comment over at:
690a845de9 (commitcomment-14209868)
It's really a bit ugly to have builds running during evaluation, but
back when I made that commit the reason was to avoid having to shell
quote the hell out of it (see the comment in mkPluginInfo for the
reason).
Now we propagate plugin flags and environment variables as a list of
arguments in a plain file that's appended verbatim to makeWrapper, so
it shouldn't do any builds anymore during instantiation.
I have tested this with both just WideVine and just Flash enabled as
well as both in combination and none of the plugins and the output seems
correct. However I didn't test to run Chromium with the new
implementation.

Built and run Beta and Stable locally. Dev is surrently superseded by Stable so
it doesn't matter much.
- Dev: 47.0.2508.0 -> 48.0.2564.22
- Beta: 46.0.2490.64 -> 48.0.2564.23
- Stable: 45.0.2454.101 -> 47.0.2526.73
Changed the SSL dependencies to the supported configuration on Linux (according
to Torne @Freenode/#chromium-support).
- NSS is a dependency since it is used to access the ceritiface store.
- Dropped system OpenSSL support, the bundled BoringSSL is used.
This probably fixes issue #10555. Note that without this adjustment the build
fails even.
Dropped uneeded old patches.
The most complex problems were from dealing with switches reverted in
the meantime (gcc5, gmp6, ncurses6).
It's likely that darwin is (still) broken nontrivially.
Close#10444, fixes#8749.
For some reason it's more involved than just setting gyp configuration,
we also have to set some definitions in widevine_cdm_version.h according
to the comments left in the file. Arch Linux does this already and so we
should probably just use the patch they created while getting Netflix to
work:
https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=429452#c16
- systemd puts all into one output now (except for man),
because I wasn't able to fix all systemd/udev refernces
for NixOS to work well
- libudev is now by default *copied* into another path,
which is what most packages will use as build input :-)
- pkgs.udev = [ libudev.out libudev.dev ]; because there are too many
references that just put `udev` into build inputs (to rewrite them all),
also this made "${udev}/foo" fail at *evaluation* time
so it's easier to catch and change to something more specific
It's another attempt to fix chromium builds.
See http://hydra.nixos.org/build/26086977/nixlog/4/raw
Unpacking sources is actually taking more than 2h so build fails.
Instead, rather build it remotely and then copy over the output as
we don't have limits for download time.

Overview of the updated versions:
beta: 45.0.2454.15 -> 45.0.2454.26
dev: 45.0.2454.15 -> 46.0.2471.2
Changes for getting beta and dev channel to build:
* The reference for chrome::FILE_FLASH_PLUGIN doesn't exist anymore in
version 46, because it has been dropped upstream, see the following
review URL:
https://codereview.chromium.org/1255943002
We set the PPAPI Flash path using a command line flag anyway, so it
doesn't hurt us if we don't patch that path (which was an old
artifact from the NSAPI->PPAPI conversion anyway).
Changes for the dev channel only:
* It seems that in the SCM, chrome/test/data/webui/ contains a lot of
files, however they are missing in the tarball.
This has been reported upstream at: https://crbug.com/515917
Our fix is to just not include webui/i18n_process_css_test.html at
all, to avoid the configure (gyp) phase to fail, because we're not
building tests anyway.

beta: 44.0.2403.52 -> 44.0.2403.61
For the beta channel the following changes were necessary:
* Drop all patches which were added in c290595 because they apply to
44.0.2403.52 only. The shipped version of Blink was older than the
one used for Chromium itself and thus contained just the
cherry-picked patches from upstream Blink.
* The ffmpegsumo library is now statically linked the same way as in

Just silencing the error will not prevent Chromium from trying to start
up the SUID sandbox anyway, thus flooding stderr with:
LaunchProcess: failed to execvp:
After digging a bit in the source code I found out that the SUID sandbox
binary is indeed used, but only for setting oom_score_adj within the
user namespace (as "root"). So let's build the sandbox binary and of
course don't set setuid bit.
These annoying error messages were originally introduced by 0aad4b7 and
I'm deeply sorry for annoying you guys out there with them.
Signed-off-by: aszlig <aszlig@redmoonstudios.org>
Since 0aad4b7, we no longer need to have an external sandbox binary,
because the upstream implementation of the user namespace sandbox no
longer needs an external sandbox binary.
In our implementation of the user namespace sandbox, we (ab)used the
setuid sandbox to run non-setuid and set up user namespaces instead.
Because our implementation is no longer needed, we can safely drop the
external binary entirely.

There has been some recent news about that component extension on hacker
news:
https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9724409
Even though on our side it won't work, because we don't have NaCl
enabled by default or even working (I honestly haven't tested if it even
builds if enabled), we might get to the point where we can build with
NaCl enabled.
But until and even after that day, we want to have explicit control on

Changes included:
- Update versions.
- Use gyp package not gyp_svn1977.
- Remove icu from buildInputs, since this causes a build error due to inferference with use_system_icu=false.
- Remove the hack that inserts the absolute path into gyp files, and pass `--depth .` to gyp. This resolves the `third_party/angle` gyp error.
- Do a normal copy of the source code not a symlink copy. This resolves some link error where the symlinks interfere with relative paths (seems like because gyp resolves symlinks first). Note, this used to be worked around with the absolute path insertion hack.
- Change the bucketURL in update.nix to https (for more secure updates).
Works around regression from a305e6855d.
We're also marking it lowPrio to make sure nobody will accidentally
reference it using nix-env -i.

After the pulseaudio refactor in NixOS/nixpkgs@a2a3508, libcap is no
longer propagated to chromium anymore. And we need to have libcap for
the renderer sandbox.

What makes me wonder is that given that this was propagated by
pulseaudio noone either seemed to have disabled pulseaudio support for
Chromium or just didn't report the build failure.

Okay, now finally, let's get this straight. We actually *want*

This reverts commit fdb5cf8107.
The reason I'm reverting this is that the implications this had on the
IO load of Hydra are fixed by c92dbffeac.
Signed-off-by: aszlig <aszlig@redmoonstudios.org>
So far we've done the source code split up by using the generic
unpackPhase and copying it all over into the different outputs.
However, this had the problem of generating the I/O load of about three
times the size of the source tree: First at fetchurl of the tarball
(although it's not as much because it's compressed), second at
unpackPhase and third at installPhase.
Now we don't use installPhase anymore and directly unpack into the
output paths, which unfortunately becomes quite a bit more complex
because we need to transform the paths of the tar file on the fly.
I've also tried using GNU Tar's --to-command option to even untar *and*
patch it at the same time, but forking for every single file in the
tarball gets REALLY slow and also gets even more complex than this two
stage approach because you need to make sure that the patch file is
applied correctly, for example for files that don't yet exist but are to
be created by the patch file.
We're using --anchored and --no-wildcards-match-slash here to prevent
accidentally excluding files we don't want to exclude. One example is
something like v8/tools/gyp/v8.gyp.
So the current approach is some compromise between complexity and speed
and should hopefully get rid of the Hydra build timeouts by lowering I/O
load.

In the course of supporting the official namespace sandbox (that's what
the user namespace sandbox is called), a few things needed to be fixed
for version 42:
* Add an updated nix_plugin_paths.patch, because the old
one tries to patch the path for libpdf, which is now natively included
in Chromium.
* Don't copy libpdf.so to libexec path for version 42, it's no longer
needed as it's completely built-in now.
* Disable SUID sandbox directly in the source instead of going the easy
route of passing --disable-setuid-sandbox. The reason is that with
the command line flag a nasty nagbar will appear.

We're propagating the plugin flags by importing from another Nix
expression file, which in turn exports the Nix path to the wrapper. This
causes that the store path isn't referenced in the wrapper and the path
isn't recognized by scanning the wrapper script (only those already
referenced at build time are).
So let's add the activated plugins to the buildInputs of the wrapper.

This brings a new stable version 40.0.2214.91 along with a beta update
to version 41.0.2272.16, the dev channel is still stuck at version
41.0.2272.12 and within the next days will jump to version 42.
For this reason, I've done some cheating here and brought the beta
channel in par with the dev channel, because dev is older than beta on
OmahaProxy.
Here's an overview of the channel upgrades:
stable: 39.0.2171.65 -> 40.0.2214.91 [1]
beta: 40.0.2214.10 -> 41.0.2272.16 [1] [2] [3]
dev: 41.0.2224.3 -> 41.0.2272.16 [1] [2] [3]
[1]: We needed to patch in locations of lib{pci,udev}.so, because
Chromium tries to load them at runtime. For version 41 startup will
fail if it is unable to load libudev, but it also has the advantage
that this fixes GPU detection using libpci in the stable version,
which in turn could fix a few bugs on NixOS.
[2]: The upstream Debian package for the binary plugins now uses XZ
compression for the enclosed data tarball.
[3]: Chromium 41 needs {shapshot,natives}_blob.bin in order to start up,
so let's cp it among with the .pak files to avoid adding a
conditional for version 40.
The release annoucement of the stable channel update can be found here:

apologizing for the delay of this update.

Writing the gid_map is already non-fatal, but the actual sandbox process
still tries to setresgid() to nogroup (usually 65534). This however
fails, because if user namespace sandboxing is present, the namespace
doesn't have CAP_SETGID at this point.
Fortunately, the effective GID is already 65534, so we just need to
check whether the target gid matches and only(!) setresgid() if it
doesn't.
So if someone would run a SUID version of the sandbox, it would still
work nonetheless without a negative impact on security.

This is more of an attempt rather than a real fix (or maybe it is? let's
see) for the corrupted .pyc files during build. I believe the reason we
get these are likely due to several instances of the Python interpreter
that run in parallel and one of these processes might still be writing
the .pyc file.
So, rather than deleting all .pyc files, we now precompile then in order
to avoid any build process trying to generate any .pyc file.

We now create Nix expressions within the plugin output path(s) which
then will be imported and incorporated into the wrapper. This makes it
easier for other plugins to provide configuration settings to the main
Chromium wrapper.
Of course, in order to allow for external plugins we need to allow

beta: 39.0.2171.19 -> 40.0.2214.10
dev: 40.0.2182.3 -> 41.0.2224.3
We can now remove missing_alg_import.patch, because version 39 is nom
stable and thus fixes the missing include directive upstream.
However, starting with version 40, we hit a few bugs with system
protobuf, so we're disabling it for every version >=40 to avoid
runtime/startup errors.
Here is the stable channel announcement for version 39 on the official
blog:

Seems to be needed in order to view Netflix content, but this only pulls
in the proprietary plugin and doesn't yet compile Chromium with support
for it, so this is only in preparation for the bright and shiny future
(where we all have rootkits implanted in our body).
Of course, this plugin is disabled by default as well as all the other
proprietary plugins.
For the plugin derivation, we now do the checkPhase _after_ the
installPhase, to make sure we also detect RPATHs pointing to the plugin
directory itself, because the shared object files only exist after the
installPhase.

With this commit, the following new upstream versions are introduced:
stable: 37.0.2062.94 -> 37.0.2062.120
beta: 38.0.2125.24 -> 38.0.2125.101
dev: 39.0.2138.3 -> 39.0.2171.7
All channels built fine on my machine and were tested against a few

The missing_alg_import.patch now is no longer needed for version 39, so
we're not applying it there anymore.

Of course we're also dropping all version 36 specific crap, such as the

With this commit, the following new upstream versions are introduced:
stable: 35.0.1916.153 -> 36.0.1985.125
beta: 36.0.1985.84 -> 37.0.2062.44
dev: 37.0.2054.3 -> 38.0.2101.0
All builds were successfully tested on my machine, however in order to
update the beta and dev channels, a few additional modifications were
necessary:
* Don't update address_input_strings.grdp anymore because this has been
done/fixed upstream and was relevant in version 37.0.2054.3 _only_.
* No need to fix references to /usr/bin/gcc in version 38 anymore.
* Constrain patch for Angle (introduced in 4cbedd7) to version 37 only,
because it already has been applied upstream in version 38.
* Drop user namespaces patch for version 31 up until version 35,
because version 36 is already in stable.
* Don't try to build bundled Clang and/or even build using Clang.
* Remove obsolete patchPhase commands that are specific to version 35
and older.
While testing the dev version 38 I came accross a font rendering issue
which needs to be addressed ASAP (perhaps related to #3187), however the
browser works otherwise.

This is because of a single file that symlinks to the source output
path:
libexec/chromium/resources/extension/demo/library.js
Target within source output path:
chrome/browser/resources/extension_resource/demo/library.js
So we just need to ensure that the cp command follows symlinks during
installPhase and we should no longer have this unnecessary dependency.

After refactoring the updater we no longer did properly propagate the

Let's ensure we do all architecture-dependant stuff inside
mkChromiumDerivation and not pass archInfo around, so we can properly
decouple it from the main function.
This partially reverts 8d54dc6d13.
The main reason for doing this is because the architecture information
is no longer required in Chromium 37, so let's uglify and XXX it in
common.nix and remove it once version 37 hits the stable channel.

This fixes build for version 36, which i accidentally broke in commit
f6e31fadd8.
The reason this happened, was that my Hydra didn't pick up the latest
commit and I actually tested and built the parent commit instead of the
update commit.
So, this commit is the real "builds fine, tested" for all channels.
Also, the sandbox client initalization has moved into
setuid_sandbox_client.cc, so we need to move the lookup of the
CHROMIUM_SANDBOX_BINARY_PATH environment variable there.

The system attribute was already there in the function head of the
shared update helper but it actually wasn't used and thus later the
import of <nixpkgs> was done using builtins.currentSystem instead of the
system attribute inherited from the source derivation.
Now we correctly propagate the attribute, so that even when running a
64bit kernel you can run a 32bit Chromium with binary plugins.

This should fix the desktop icon location for both desktop entries (the

We already have a desktop icon from the browser wrapper, so this is only

For the new version 36, we needed to rebase our user namespaces sandbox
patch, because http://crbug.com/312380 is preparing for an upstream
implementation of the same functionality.
Also, we need to add ply and jinja2 to the depends on version 36. This
is done unconditionally, because I want to avoid cluttering up the
expressions with various versionOlder checks.
The sandbox binary had to be fixed as well and we no longer use system
zlib, as - who might have guessed it - it's a fast moving target at
Chromium as well.

The version of v8 to use for Chromium is heavily tied to the specific

This results in a new function called mkChromiumDerivation, which can be
used to easily build packages that are based on the Chromium source
tree.
We pass through this function as mkDerivation in the chromium wrappre,
so in the end if you want to create such a package, something like:
chromium.mkDerivation (base: {
name = "your-shiny-package-based-on-chromium";
...
})
will suffice.
Of course, this is only the first step towards this functionality,
because right now I'm not even sure the Chromium browser itself will
build.

This now uses the Debian package from the sources derivation instead of

Signed-off-by: aszlig <aszlig@redmoonstudios.org>
This cases the Debian binaries to be fetched from Google's official APT
repository. If we aren't able to find a package from the APT repository,
it's very likely that it already got deleted upstream and we need to
fallback to mirrors instead.
Unfortunately, we can't use mirrors for updating, because Google doesn't
sign the Debian packages themselves and only the release files.
We're going to hook it into a Chromium updater soon, making the sha256
hashes publicly available, so if it is missing, we can still put the
sha256 manually into sources.nix, without risking anything by blindly
fetching from one of the provided mirrors.
Signed-off-by: aszlig <aszlig@redmoonstudios.org>
The updater is now splitted between a shellscript and a Nix expression
file which contains helpers and lookup functions to reconstruct all
information needed in order to fetch the source tarballs.
This means, that the sources.nix now doesn't contain URLs and only
versions and the corresponding SHA256 hashes. Of course, right now this
sounds like it's unnecessary, but we're going to fetch binaries soon so
it's a good idea to not unnecessarily clutter up sources.nix.
Signed-off-by: aszlig <aszlig@redmoonstudios.org>
Next, we're going to refactor update.sh and the first step is to ensure

We don't want ta have the source derivation in the runtime dependencies

I'm giving up on this after several attempts to correctly unbundle the
largest part, namely Google's WebKit fork Blink. Right now it's so much
tied into the Chromium source it's going to be fairly hard to do if
you're not working full time on it.
Also, the intermediate steps needed to do this properly would introduce
uneccesary complexity on our side, so we really need to finish this
without leaving it in the "messy" state in order to not make Chromium
even more difficult to maintain than it is already.
However, anyone who wants to proceed on this messy step is free to
revert this commit and continue doing so. In my case I'm going to try
again once https://crbug.com/239107 and https://crbug.com/239181 are
fixed in _stable_ (I don't want to introduce *lots* of conditionals on
the version either).

We obviously don't want the Hydra job of nixpkgs to fail, so we need to
make sure that we have a proper meta attribute on the outermost
derivation.
For builds based on the Chromium source tree (like for example libcef),
we can still move the wrapper elsewhere when we need it.

This is because of our symlink mess, as Chromium's build support scripts
are trying to resolve everything based on absolute paths and we split
off the bundled sources from the main derivation.

patch up the gyp files and use references someday.

Now, we no longer tie the sandbox directly to the browser derivation but
wrap everything together into one derivation at the entry point at
default.nix.
Signed-off-by: aszlig <aszlig@redmoonstudios.org>
So far we just copied everything from source.* into the build directory
during the prePatch. This somewhat defeated the purpose of the source
splitup because it involved more I/O than just unpacking the entire
source tree.
Now, we're selectively *symlinking* the bundled sources into the build
directory. Even that isn't perfect because in the end we'd just
reference foreign derivations and we're done. But for now, this gets us
at least prepared for a massive reduction of compile time.
Unfortunately, gyp's behaviour when it comes to symlinks is quite
painful to come by, so we need to fix a few references to use absolute
paths.

This is hardcoded for the dev channel at the moment and we're going to

We currently can't build the -lite package because beta and dev versions

Build failure on Hydra:

This was caused by the update of file in 5885709.
As file seems to be used for only one substition in the gyp files, we
can now drop the build dependency on file and patch out the substition
expression, as it is done before actually testing if the value has been
set by -D (gyp, y u no have lazy eval!?).

Sorry to everyone for my inactivity lately.
The following changes were needed in order to build those new releases:
* Patch out /bin/echo to allow building with all options enabled.
* Always use GN from the source tree.
* Remove import of depot_tools for version 34.
* Drop version 32 specific stuff.
With this commit, the following new upstream versions are introduced:

dev: 33.0.1712.4 -> 34.0.1809.0 (build broken with gnome_keyring)
The dev version requires a more recent version gnome_keyring and thus
won't build if gnomeKeyringSupport is set to true. I haven't tested this
build without gnomeKeyringSupport yet, so it might be broken and will be
fixed later.

This splits up the source into one base output (just the build and tools
directory), one for bundled dependencies, one for sandbox sources and
one for the sources of the main browser.
The state of this is heavily work in progress and contains a bunch of
workarounds. For example, we currently copy the entire sources into the
build directory, so a build ultimately requires even more space than
before.
Of course, it's just temporary as neither GYP nor ninja is particularly
friendly if it comes to out-of-tree builds.
Another thing which is heavily WIP is how we handle patches. Ultimately,
those patches shouldn't be applied to the source tree (at least not all)
but rather to the final build's temporary directory.

Thanks to @jcumming for notifying me about this in #nixos:
03:47 < jack_c> aszlig: chromium builds with -Werror by default.
03:47 < jack_c> Putting: werror = "";
03:48 < jack_c> into gypFlags fixes that..
...
03:52 < jack_c> aszlig: agree -Werror is a good linting tool, but it should
probably disabled for distribution.
So, I guess it makes sense in our case, especially because different GCC
versions will issue different warnings.

Chromium 28.0.1500.52 finally is stable, so the release channels are now:
stable: 28.0.1500.52 (builds fine, tested)
beta: 28.0.1500.52 (same as stable)
dev: 29.0.1541.2 (patch rebased, builds fine, tested)
The user namespace patch doesn't apply for version 29, so I had to rebase it
against the current trunk (revision 207742).
And as version 27 is outdated, we no longer need to distinguish versions for
patching the hardcoded gcc path in core/core.gypi.

The following new versions were introduced:
beta: 28.0.1500.45 - builds fine and tested
dev: 29.0.1521.3 - builds fine and tested
Although the version from the dev release channel isn't the latest found on
omahaproxy but it's the latest one, that actually has tarballs available.

Previously we have just checked for equality. When going back in history, that
way if the history is somewhat out-of-sync, we could end up "updating" to an
older version, which we definitely don't want.

Omahaproxy has an URL which lists a history of the published versions, which
allows to not only go back one versions, but several. Now it is ensured, that we
always have the latest _available_ version in sources.nix.

This is especially annoying for the dev channel, as it happens quite frequently
that tarballs are unavailable. So if fetching the latest version doesn't work,
try the second latest version.

These new versions are introduced with this commit:
stable: 26.0.1410.63 -> 27.0.1453.93 (builds fine, tested)
beta: 27.0.1453.81 -> 28.0.1500.20 (builds fine, tested)

This brings in Chromium 27 as the new stable version.
Specific versions of the updated channels:
stable: 26.0.1410.63 -> 27.0.1453.93 (builds fine, tested)
beta: 27.0.1453.81 -> 28.0.1500.20 (builds fine, tested)
dev: 28.0.1500.11 -> 29.0.1516.3 (builds fine, tested)
We now can finally drop the following patches:
* glibc-2.16-use-siginfo_t.patch
* pulseaudio_array_bounds.patch
These were for version 26 only and thus are no longer needed.
In addition, we no longer have to use the pre/post attributes, as there is just
_one_ place that uses version specific stuff (path to webcore.gyp).

Wanted to do this a long time ago, but never had a reason to do it. But with
Chromium 29 having no make target for chrome_sandbox, we now use ninja as well
as the official build and most other distributions.
The whole build/make flags cruft is now integrated into one buildPhase override
and we just call ninja there by exporting the specific variables.
And this also makes enableParallelBuilding obsolete, as we use NIX_BUILD_CORES
directly now.

This patch adds support for unprivileged user namespaces found in kernel
versions 3.8.0 and later. In case of Nix, this is especially useful to prevent
having to set up setuid wrappers.
The implementation details about this patch can be found at the top of the file
"sandbox_userns.patch". My first attempt of creating this patch was by modifying
the SUID sandbox. Unfortunately this didn't work out well, because in the event
of a sandbox failure, the host zygote process waits for an answer of the inner
zygote with no timeout. Even if I'd have set a timeout, this would have been
very ugly, giving users which don't have unprivileged user namespaces a delay on
startup.
An alternative approach to the mentioned problem would be to use select() on the
host zygote, watching for changes stdout or stderr and the synchronization
socket. But even that approach isn't feasible because it requires a whole bunch
of even more patching.
Patch was tested with older kernels (3.2.x, 3.7.x) and kernels without user
namespace support enabled, where in case the feature is unavailable it reverts
back to the previous behaviour (no zygote sandbox, only seccomp BPF).
In order to support all Chromium channels, I manually changed the first hunk of
the patch to not include the starting context of the diff, because there is a
whitespace change in more recent versions of the Chromium source tree.
See SVN revision 199882 for the change (revert in this case) in detail:

The updater was actually getting the -lite version, which our expression won't
build with, except if we switch some bundled dependencies to those in nixpkgs.
Of course the problem with fetching version 27 was me being stupid and using a
case statement in the updater, as if there won't be any version after 26 ;-)

dev: 26.0.1410.12 -> 26.0.1410.28 (builds fine, tested)
Still, we should have version 27 already for the dev channel, so we might look
about where to find the newest tarball.

This gets rid of the patch for newer pulseaudio library versions.
In addition, we now have protobuf and pciutils in default dependencies, as those
are required (or better: optional, but recommended and thus activated by the
default gyp options) by versions >= 25.
Also, we now no longer depend on libpng, but I'm not dropping this, as we want
to get back to libpng from nixpkgs again 'real soon'.
The stack-protector flag is now disabled by default accross all versions, and
probably didn't hurt back in version 24, but at least we're now no longer add it
dependant on a particular version.
And those pesky post/onlyXX version booleans are now pre/postXX, to ensure
better clarity.

So, after searching for days in the wrong spot, eventually discovering that
postPatch isn't run on Hydra, we're now set to move forward to version 25, YAY!

This commits updates dev and beta channels to version 26.0.1410.12, because

Merge conflicts seemed trivial, but a look from viric and aszlig would be nice.
So, this is our sledgehammer, forcing -fno-stack-protector for every gcc/g++ in
the univ... Chromium build. Of course this is a somewhat nasty fix and there
should be a real fix somewhere in Chromium 26. But instead of wandering around
and picking cherries, we now go out for the slaughter until someone brings us
the damn cherries because we are FUURRRIII... no well... time for sleep :-)

This should at least mitigate our build error to only occur in v8 anymore.
Unfortunately we can't use v8 from nixpkgs right now, so we're going to put out
our sledgehammer in the next commit. Meanwhile, it doesn't hurt to get rid of

The upgrade currently doesn't involve the -lite package, as we need to use a few
more dependencies from nixpkgs first before we can finally fully switch over to
the lite package, even though the update script will try to fetch it anyway.
In this update, one particular problem that arises in conjuction with the
seccomp BPF sandbox is caused by this commit:
https://chromiumcodereview.appspot.com/12209029
Which particularily filters flags to the clone() syscall. I've spent (wasted?) a
few hours figuring out the troublesome flag, eventually figuring it out and -
just by curiousity ("Do other distributions have the same problem?") - searched
the web for "chromium CLONE_DETACHED" and BEHOLD...
A post from our OWN mailinglist pops up with the same patch I intended to do:
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.distributions.nixos/10356
So shame on me for not being subscribed to the mailing list, and big thanks to
Ian Farmer for the patch.
As a consequence I'm now subscribed.
So, back to chromium itself, version 26 builds fine and works so far without
much (more to come in later commits) trouble.
We also had to introduce three more dependencies:
* protobuf: This one is because we don't need to use the bundled one anymore,
so we can use the version in nixpkgs.
* speechd: Not sure whether this was bundled or not, but let's use nixpkgs
version as well to keep down build time.
* libXdamage: Needed for screen capturing support.

This update is a bit more problematic, as the bundled version of libpng is
version 1.2.45 and the version in nixpkgs is 1.5.13. Even if trying to run with
libpng12 from nixpkgs, it seems to collide with parts of the bundled version.
So, until this is either fixed upstream or we have a good solution, we're using
bundled libpng for chromium version 25 and higher.

For this update we needed to fix a bunch of things:
* Limit pulse_audio_fix.patch to version 24 only (fixed upstream in 25).
* Avoid the use of -fstack-protector for version 25.
The -fstack-protector option seems to be passed to libvpx now by default, so
simply use -fno-stack-protector in every occurence of -fstack-protector in
common.gypi. At least for now this will do it, but ultimately and for the future
we may want to have support for that in general.
And if we need that support in chromium directly depends on some of the next
updates to this package, as it seems that we now can switch to quite a lot of
nixpkgs dependencies instead of bundled dependencies.
