[opensuse-factory] Changes for Chromium webbrowser
Dear Listmates, Maybe you have already noticed that the Chromium package was changed due to the high number of rebuilds in the network:chromium project. The reason for this is that I was able to simplify the build of chromium by using "official" tarballs provided by the chromium developers. It seemed that openSUSE was the only distro, that provided Chromium based on SVN snapshots and not utilizing available tarballs. In coordination with one of the Chromium developers (and chromium packager for Gentoo), I successfully transferred our chromium build from the svn snapshot to the released tarballs. As that the tarball does not deliver all the required components, it took longer than expected to get the build the openSUSE way. :-) Based on the improved methodology, we are now able to build from the Chrome stable, beta or even Dev channel. To increase usability, I will start tracking the stable and beta channels: + The Beta channel will be used to update the packages in the network:chromium repository, which also will be submitted to Factory + The Stable channel will be used to create maintenance updates for the support openSUSE versions (if possible due to requirements on certain package versions) and these maintenance updates will be build in the network:chromium:stable project. The current Beta (31.0.1650.8) was build in network:chromium and was just submitted to Factory The current stable (30.0.1599.69) will be build in network:chromium:stable as soon as the tarball is available and then submitted to openSUSE_12.3 as maintenance update. Unfortunately this is not possible for openSUSE 12.2 as that it requires a higher version of nspr/nss than available on 12.2.

12.2 and 12.3 are on the same NSPR and NSS versions so this cannot be an issue. Both are on NSPR 4.10 NSS 3.15.1 (and soonish 3.15.2) You have to build against the Update Repos though (or the corresponding mozilla ones but you probably are better off with Update repos).

Thanks for the hint :-) Stable repo is now building against both Update repo's. Hopefully tonight I can submit the maintenance update. Regards Raymond -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

And you know where to find me for anything related mozilla, right? 😉 Wolfgang -- Diese Nachricht wurde von meinem Android-Mobiltelefon mit K-9 Mail gesendet. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

Hi Wolfgang, Thanks again. Building against the Update repos, resolved the nss/nspr dependency issue for Chromium. Packages were successfully build and I have just submitted it as a maintenance request for 12.2 and 12.3 Regards Raymond -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

Great, thanks for doing that! :-)

Does that mean 13.1 will be released with a beta version of chromium? cu Ludwig -- (o_ Ludwig Nussel //\ V_/_ http://www.suse.de/ SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Jeff Hawn, Jennifer Guild, Felix Imendörffer, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

Yes. Which is a lot better as that 12.3 was released with nothing more than a svn snapshot :). As indicated after release 13.1 will then receive only maintenance updates (together with 12.2 and 12.3) based on the stable releases.
