Working on Chromium really drives me nuts due to its build time, also I
really don't have quite a lot of time these days to properly maintain it
anymore.

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.

I'm not certain about this, so I'm trying for firefox only.
Rationale: it might be confusing to see two firefox-${version} instances
in logs or paths, so I wanted to differentiate them.
- I chose to keep `browser-unwrapped` attributes so that it's much
easier to override parameters for the browser (through `packageOverrides`).
- Aliases `browserWrapper` are retained for now, as usual.
The official repository has last been updated in 2013,
meanwhile there are a lot of issues like non-existant
certificate verification. The debian repository is actively
maintained and already includes most of our custom patches,
so we use it instead.
Fixes#12257, closes#12259.
vcunat appended commit date to version.
- I don't think that amount of code belonged into all-packages.nix.
- Now the default name of the wrapped package is identical
with the command that runs the browser.
- Other defaults were changed according to how the wrapper is
(almost always) used.
- `meta` is improved: mostly inherited with priority above
the unwrapped package.

The mass errors on Hydra seem transient; I verified ghc on i686-linux.
Only darwin jobs are queued ATM. There's a libpng security update
included in this merge, so I don't want to wait too long.
It is a little weird that chromium has chromium, chromiumBeta,
chromiumDev but this one is google-chrome, google-chrome-beta,
google-chrome-dev. Not quite sure what the best resolution is, if any.
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 Dev is surrently superseded by Stable so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.
As suggested the Google Chrome .deb file that is used for Chromium's plugins is reused.
vcunat removed lots of newlines, as the style was diverging from the
majority far too much (IHHO).
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
Upstream changes to the build system required adjusting many packages'
dependencies. On the Nixpkgs side, we no longer propagate the dependency
on cmake (to reduce closure size), so downstream dependencies had to be
adjusted for most packages that depend on kdelibs.
The patch only applies for Firefox versions between 37.0 and 40.1.
Because we're on version 41.0 the changes are already included upstream
and thus the patch doesn't apply and is even unnecessary.
As for version 38.3 for ESR, the patch doesn't apply as well if compiled
with enableGTK3. Of course, this is a bit unfortunate but I don't have
the time right now to properly rebase the patch on 38.3.

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.

This seems to have been confusing people, using both xlibs and xorg, etc.
- Avoided renaming local (and different) xlibs binding in gcc*.
- Fixed cases where both xorg and xlibs were used.
Hopefully everything still works as before.
Although I couldn't test this because I'm not using a DE, nobody else
than the one submitting the pull request has commented on this. So if it
should break the icon for other people, nobody would probably start an
assassination because of this and the commit can be easily reverted if
it should break the icon.
wkennington@f6c1004 switched Firefox to GStreamer 1.0 by changing its
buildInput *only*, but that is not enough. We need to fix Firefox
wrappers by changing their buildInputs and set GST_PLUGIN_SYSTEM_PATH_1_0
instead of GST_PLUGIN_SYSTEM_PATH.
With above changes playing H.264/MP4 media works in firefoxWrapper and
conkerorWrapper as tested with

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.

Use system libpng with apng support.
Use the system icu which works fine in newer firefox builds.
Use jemalloc to speed up memory allocations and reduce fragmentation.
This reverts commit cd52c04456 and
others.
Managing certificates (including revoking certificates and adding
custom certificates) becomes extremely painful if every package in the
system potentially depends on a different copy of cacert. Also, it
makes updating cacert rather expensive.
The only mirror left which still has the .deb for 44.0.2403.89 is
http://mirror.pcbeta.com/, but that one doesn't seem to be reachable
from certain contries.
And according to @CestDiego, it doesn't seem to be reachable from within
the US.

Overview of the updated versions:
stable: 43.0.2357.125 -> 43.0.2357.130
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
the dev version, so let's not try to put it into the output store
path.

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
whether this extension is enabled.
Please also have a look at these two issues explaining the details
(about component extensions and the hotwording extension in particular):

There was the usual crashing and a few icons missing.
@lethalman: I think it's best to start putting $XDG_ICON_DIRS into suffix
instead of prefix (as here), so user-installed icons take precedence.
/cc #7743.
This also merges pull request #8290 plus a few other fixes from
@ambrop72 and me.
The summary of changes is:
* Update all channels to latest upstream.
* Update GYP package and drop gyp_svn1977.
* Remove ICU from buildInputs to prevent build failure.
* Switch back to using --depth . to GYP instead of patching in the
absolute store paths.
* Don't symlink source code anymore, which might introduce a
regression on high I/O load on Hydra. As this is only a temporary
build fix, let's cross fingers and hope we don't hit it. See
c92dbffeac for an explanation.
* Use HTTPS for the bucket URL.
* Fix nix_plugin_paths patch for version 44 and higher.

The pepper effects plugin has been removed and migrated to NaCl, so I'm
just dropping the hunk of that patch.

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).
Many (less easily automatically converted) old-style strings
remain.
Where there was any possible ambiguity about the exact version or
variant intended, nothing was changed. IANAL, nor a search robot.
Use `with stdenv.lib` wherever it makes sense.
Works around regression from a305e6855d.
We're also marking it lowPrio to make sure nobody will accidentally
reference it using nix-env -i.
Until we have fixed#7402, we're going to build with the old gyp version
to prevent being affected by https://crbug.com/462153.

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.
Build log: https://hydra.nixos.org/build/21689759/nixlog/1/raw
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.
Half-assed testing done against all channels, because it builds the
sandbox and we can't break an already broken build twice (or maybe we
can, who knows...).
