When Chromium is built with the latest GCC 4.9 the browser processes crash in awquard ways. The bug has been already reported upstream and is fixed for the chromium master branch, but it has not been backported to versions 35 and 36. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. gcc-config x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-4.9.0 2. emerge www-client/chromium 3. start Chromium Actual Results: The browser main window is displayed, but the contents show a crash message from the render process. This happens for every tab. Expected Results: The browser should work normally and display website content
Are you compiling with -O3 by any chance? If so try with -O2 as a workaround it worked for me
chromium-36 is no longer in the tree. Feel free to reopen if more recent versions are somehow affected.
