Description Harris Landgarten 2015-04-10 12:15:29 UTC
requires libnettle.so.4 which prevents it from starting.

BTW, this is not shown as a dependency.

Same as gnutls

Do you get some error message?
Comment 2 Harris Landgarten 2015-04-19 14:01:43 UTC
It crashes with requires libnettle.so.4
Comment 3 Mike Gilbert gentoo-dev 2015-04-19 15:19:40 UTC
What does "it crashes" actually mean? If you run it from a terminal, does that give you any error message?
Comment 4 Harris Landgarten 2015-04-19 15:23:13 UTC
sorry. If I just run it it never comes up. If it run it from the command line it says it cannot find libnettle.so.4 and then exits.

gnutls has the same issue.
Comment 5 Mike Gilbert gentoo-dev 2015-04-19 15:40:49 UTC
Oh, I see. google-chrome does not depend on nettle directly; it gets pulled in by libcups.so.2 -> libgnutls.so.28 -> libnettle.so.4.

This is not a bug in google-chrome.
