updating packagers' info (patches etc)

[Paweł Hajdan, Jr.]

From some recent threads (example) looks like it'd be useful to share some patches more.

It may also be an interesting idea to link to bug trackers - at least I check out other distros' trackers out of curiosity from time to time.

Please consider checking if https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/master/docs/linux_chromium_packages.md is up-to-date for your distro.

Feel free to upload CLs to update it, and if you prefer I could also update it for you.

Thanks for bringing this to my attention!

I wonder how I should update the openSUSE informations to fit in...

We have 3 packages:

https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/network:chromium/chromium

https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/network:chromium/chromium-beta

https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/network:chromium/chromium-dev

For all 3 there might be different patches inlined in the same links. And as interesting path we always have latest package buildlog on newest rolling release [1], I always put there the latest snapshot even if it fails to build so others can see its "progress".

Also we at SUSE backport stuff to GCC7 currently to make sure the 65 builds with the compiler (the same can't be said for 66 where there is currently bug in GCC [2]).

For 67 -dev channel I could not get it to start produce something yet, but I dunno if I will have more time to prod it before Sunday...

Cheers

Tom

Personally I'd just add the links to the stable package to follow what
other distros seem to do there (alternatively, I guess you could link to
all the different packages by using some short words in Markdown).

Looking at the bug, I think it's a duplicate of
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=70431, which was worked
around in master via
https://chromium-review.googlesource.com/c/chromium/src/+/944403
