The puppeteering branch is frozen. There was an announcement that it
would be unsupported when it dropped, which we should probably put
somewhere prominent in that source tree.

I would suggest doing a diff against the base and newer revision and
applying that to a live branch if you want to use it as a production
viewer. There are likely other security updates that never made that
branch.
