For in NixOS it is beneficial if both plasma5 and pam use the same Qt5
version. Because the plasma5 desktop may use a different version as the
default Qt5 version, we introduce plasma5Packages.
After the fedora patches for screen sharing using pipewire got updated
for Firefox 83 (pipewire was inlined there), the nixpkgs buildInput
pipewire got stripped from the resulting firefox binary and so firefox
was unable to actually get the shared stream from the running pipewire
service.
Adding pipewire to the firefox binary with `patchelf --add-needed`
makes it atually get the stream from the service.
Fixes: #106812
This is required for certain URIs that require launching external
programs (e.g. mailto:, magnet:, or irc:) or setting the default browser
via xdg-settings.
Resolve #92751.
Comparable to #96922.
After the recent wrapper and plugin purge outbreak where as the only
active listed maintainer of the package I didn't even get a chance to
comment (e.g. via comment or review request) I do not want to continue
maintaining this package anymore.
This patch fixes compilation on aarch64 that broke somewhere between the
upgrade to the lateste rustc and the firefox 82 to 83 upgrade.
The patch has been submitted upstream and can probably be removed on the
next version bump.
libcubeb has dlopened libraries for awhile now. In nixpkgs there was
support for the PulseAudio backend doing this, however the ALSA backend
support was missed and caused issue #79310 (no sound with ALSA). This
gives ALSA users the ability to hear sound once again.
As discussed in #101429 firefox 82 started crashing when used with
wayland. A brief investigation showed that this appears to be rooted
within the LTO support that was recently added to the package. For the
time being, until someone figures out where the crashes are coming from,
we can just disable LTO.
This ensures that we aren't applying any of the experiemental pipewire
patches when the dependencies aren't enabled. As of now pipewire only
works with wayland and webrtc. If either of them are not activated we
can't build with pipewireSupport and we should not.
