Description Brandon Captain 2010-10-02 02:53:13 UTC
this adds video/voice to gmail chat.

this is a HORRIBLY sloppy ebuild, I literally just took the google chrome ebuild, gutted it and made some changes, but it works for me.

this works for me, I've got video and voice working excellently. on my machine the video was upside down (ASUS laptop) which is resolved by launching it like so:

export LIBV4LCONTROL_FLAGS=3 && LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l1compat.so google-chrome --enable-plugins

this obviously depends on libv4l

Reproducible: Always

you'll have to download the deb package and throw it in distfiles, the link in the ebuild is never going to work :P

and please enable collision-protect in make.conf so this doesn't break things! it installs pre-compiled libs in various places.

I recommend using his ebuild then, instead of mine.
