Description Vitaly Zdanevich 2020-06-17 02:37:02 UTC

At the beginning of the build I see error message about missing USER_NS, but compilation continue after that. Because of that I wasted dozens of hours for dead-end compilation.

I believe this is an issue at runtime, so you could just fix your kernel and run Chromium afterwards?

Comment 2 Vitaly Zdanevich 2020-06-17 14:18:42 UTC

Yes I already fix my kernel, building Chromium right now. But maybe we need to stop compilation when USER_NS is missing?

You don't need to enable USER_NS to build chromium, only to run it. There would be no point in stopping the build.
