Description Luke-Jr 2012-02-28 19:50:52 UTC
Chromium devs tell me it can be built without NaCL (ie, USE=-nacl) using:
    GYP_DEFINES=disable_nacl=1 build/gyp_chromium; rebuild

Please support this option. I'm stuck on 15 since the later versions require (non-free) NaCL in Gentoo.

What's non-free about it?

Hmm, interesting, it's not in any FREE license_groups. I'll take a more detailed look.

To the best of my knowledge this is BS.

I'll check those.
