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.”
