Description Lamarque V. Souza 2014-05-24 02:45:54 UTC

google-chrome-35.0.1916.114_p1.ebuild does not support java plugins anymore. Although java plugins are not that popular some people, like me, requires it to access important web sites (Internet banking in my case). Gentoo should warn users of that change before allowing upgrading from 34.x to 35.x. In my case I will probably move to Firefox.

Sorry, but I'm not going to do that.
