can be found here:

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.
