./chrome: error while loading shared libraries: libasound.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory chromium-bin needs to depend on alsa-lib. All three or four of us who have switched to OSS4 may not have alsa-lib installed, but chromium-bin won't start without it. Reproducible: Always
Indeed, thanks for the report! I had it in chromium RDEPEND, but not in -bin Fixed in all current chromium-bin ebuilds
