Might come in handy to actually know when things going to break.
In case you're wondering: Yes, "aszlig" is the name everyone uses in real life
(even my family uses it) and is my pending stage name (not _yet_ officially).

The patch previously was fetched from an Arch Linux contributor but is no longer
available there anymore. So, this is only an intermediate fix until channels get
updated (very soon I hope, even though chromium 25 could get quite messy).

Fortunately this time the upstream package was packaged correctly and we no
longer need the patch to remove the reference to the fa_IR locale.
In addition we need to add lvm2 to dependencies because VirtualBox now requires
libdevmapper with its default configuration. We could disable it but in order to
gain DM support I think it's necessary and at least could avoid some confusion
from users if it's not working "out of the box" :-)
This is a bugfix release, upstream changes are:
* VMM: don't inject stale VT-x events to prevent crashes after VM reset
* VMM: workaround for buggy BIOSes which enable MONITOR only for certain CPUs
* GUI: fixed trimming of anti-aliased text in details-view element headers
* GUI: fixed create-settings-file-alias functionality on Mac hosts
* GUI: fixed take-guest-screenshot functionality on Windows hosts
* GUI: several minor fixes, including palette fixes
* GUI: fixed Windows 2012 OS type
* GUI: allow to terminate the VM even if VBoxSVC crashed
* API: fixed cancelling of snapshots, previously this could lead to
inconsistent VM configs
* API: fixed identifying disk images by UUID
* 3D Support: several fixes
* VRDP: fixed occasional crash with external authentication
* VGA: fix for double scan text modes
* USB: fixed invalid pending request count at the time of service of DEVICE
POWER requests (Windows hosts only)
* USB keyboard: Korean keyboard workaround
* Storage: fixed hang with QCOW images and asynchronous I/O enabled
* Storage: fixed hang with newer VHD images
* Storage: actually write the non-rotational flag to the VM settings (4.2.0
regression)
* Virtio-net: fixed the problem with network statistics counters in Session
Information dialog (GUI)
* Metrics: introduced network rate and disk usage metrics
* Metrics: fixed a crash under certain conditions on Solaris hosts
* BIOS: fix for El Torito
* Shared Folders: if the host folder of a shared folder mapping does not exist,
keep it active but mark it as invalid to prevent inconsistent
saved states
* VBoxManage: fixed converting disks from raw images
* VBoxManage: show snapshot description in the VM or snapshot information
* VBoxManage: make implicit opening of media consistent in all places dealing
with media
* VBoxManage: the iSCSI initiator name was not stored in the settings file when
doing storageattach
* VBoxManage: metrics collect now properly handles 'CPU/MHz' and
'Net/*/LinkSpeed' metrics
* VBoxManage: changing the image UUID or parent UUID as part of storageattach
works now in all safe cases
* VBoxManage: introduced storageattach --medium additions as a shortcut to
mount the additions image
* OVF: fixed importing OVF files cerated by recent VMware products
* Linux hosts / Bridged Networking: fixed the problem with leaking connections
in conntrack
* Linux Additions: added support for ConsoleKit sessions in the vminfo service
of VBoxService
* Linux Additions: don't crash during remount under certain conditions
* Linux/Solaris Additions: fixed guest memory metrics collection
* Solaris hosts: added a dependency to ensure that the user directories are
reachable when starting VBox services
* Windows host installer: integrated user-contributed translations, thanks to
all contributors!
* Windows Additions: fixed auto-logon installation for Windows 8
* Windows Additions: don't fail if the shared folders host service is not
available
* Windows Additions: fixed Guest Additions startup on Windows 2000 guests
* Windows Additions: auto-resize fixes for Windows 8 guests

The dev version doesn't build in its newest incarnation, so we will need to fix
and/or patch it before pushing upstream.

The extension pack is needed in order to have USB 2.0, RDP and PXE boot support
and is _not_ part of the free version, so please read their conditions before
using it:
https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/VirtualBox_PUEL
Further information and details about the extension pack is available here:
https://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch01.html#intro-installing
I'm wimping out here and use requireFile to ask the user to fetch the extension
pack manually, simply because I'm not a lawyer. I've seen other distributions
that fetch the extension packs directly from upstream, but I'm not sure if that
is according to Oracle's PUEL.

This is a small wrapper of Git, which integrates some GitHub specific features,
especially stuff like merging or sending pull requests or attaching commits to
an issue.
I'm not quite familiar with the Nix integration of Ruby, so let's hope that I'm
not doing something horrible here.

Shouldn't take _that_ long to build, but I was impatient during fixing the
build and it doesn't hurt anyway, does it?

A bunch of these includes expect extra prefixes which we don't have in Nix, so
we are going to batch-fix them with sed.

On NixOS, we have set TERMINFO_DIRS to the user environment, so urxvt and curses
programs running within urxvt are able to find the terminfo file. Unfortunately
this isn't the case if you're not using NixOS.
Of course we now no longer need the longDescription, which suggests to issue
export TERMINFO=~/.nix-profile/share/terminfo
... which to my eyes essentially is a workaround. So please correct me when I'm
wrong, but i think it's better if software is working as-is rather than
requiring additional configuration (except if it really makes sense or breaks
purity).
Thanks to Eelis in #nixos for reporting this.

We can still use the config attribute set from within all-packages to pass it to
the package expression, which we do in case of PulseAudio. In order to override
other stuff you can now conveniently use chromium.override without passing a
fake config attribute set.

This allows for more flexible overrides instead of just passing a custom
configuration attrset like:
chromium.override { config.chromium.channel = "beta"; }
So you can now simply do:
chromium.override { channel = "beta"; }

As we are still mainly on gtk2, so I'm disabling gtk3 support for now. Though we
might want to add an option enableGTK3 someday.

I think librecad is a good replacement for the super-outdated qcad community
edition. And afaik, librecad started by taking the qcad code and putting it
more up to date.
