Chrome cannot do hardware video acceleration without libva in its search
path. This just adds libva. Tested against a VP9 video looking at
chrome://media-internals and intel_gpu_top.
This is required to launch newer versions of Google Chrome:
/nix/store/XXX-google-chrome-dev-89.0.4385.0/share/google/chrome-unstable/google-chrome-unstable:
error while loading shared libraries: libxshmfence.so.1: cannot open
shared object file: No such file or directory
update.nix was a huuuuge hack, abusing checksum collisions, etc., and
was extremely difficult to read and maintain, especially because
values from update.nix were also used in the derivations themselves!
I've replaced this with an implementation in Python, which I chose for
readability. Rather than generating Nix, I chose to
generate JSON, since Python can do that in the standard library and
Nix can read it.
I also set update.py as an updateScript, so Chromium can now
automatically be updated!
Fixes: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/89635
See 3fadc45499. Since the beta channel is now also on 81 and the stable
channel will be on 81 soon, it makes sense to already add this
unconditionally for all channels.
This makes the command ‘nix-env -qa -f. --arg config '{skipAliases =
true;}'’ work in Nixpkgs.
Misc...
- qtikz: use libsForQt5.callPackage
This ensures we get the right poppler.
- rewrites:
docbook5_xsl -> docbook_xsl_ns
docbook_xml_xslt -> docbook_xsl
diffpdf: fixup
This "with" usage makes it trickier to track where the actual source
package of this derivation comes from. Remove that use of with to make
it a little easier to understand.
This moves libsystemd.so and libudev.so into systemd.lib, and gets rid
of libudev (which just contained a copy of libudev.so and the udev
headers). It thus reduces the closure size of all packages that
(indirectly) depend on libsystemd, of which there are quite a few (for
instance, PulseAudio and dbus). For example, it reduces the closure of
Blender from 430.8 to 400.8 MiB.
Regression introduced by f28b71023c.
Let's now expose and use the upstream-info attribute via the main
Chromium derivation, so that other packages like the google-chrome
package doesn't need to rely on internals of the Chromium
implementation.
