Dear openSUSE Users,
Last week, I send out the message that it was no longer possible to build Chromium on the openSUSE OBS. This due to issues with ffmpeg, etc.
Due to the big help of Ludwig Nussel, we resolved the issues and I can now inform you that we are building Chromium again in it's old location and that we will continue shipping Chromium with openSUSE.
A new subpackage was introduced (chromium-ffmpegsumo) that builds a restricted form of the multimedia library required by Chromium. This library supports all the opensource codecs. On Packman we continue to build the chromium-ffmpeg package that contains the same multimedia library, but then with support for more proprietary codecs (equal to the ones supported by the official Chrome browser). If you install the chromium-ffmpeg package, then automatically the new chromium-ffmpegsumo package will be deinstalled. This is the correct behavior.)
Hi, I had one doubt. We have to manually install this -ffmpeg package from Packman?. Eg: Joe User installs 12.3 and chromium package. Then he adds Packman repo and do an update (or zypper dup). This -ffmpegsumo package is substituted automatically or not? Regards and thanks for you job bringing this package to openSUSE.
