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.
