@Pavol Rusnak
Hi,

I plan on semi-supporting chromium for 11.0 (and 11.1 if it is dropped from Contrib). For 11.0 the name is ‘chromium-browser’ because of the aforementioned conflict with a game. In 11.1 it is just ‘chromium’. I won’t be able to update my project too often – I am planning on moving to 11.2 (hooray!)

@Miguel de Icaza
These packages were not tested in 11.0, David provided a build for 11.0 in his home:dbuck project, but I’m not sure if he’s willing to support this release. You should probably ask him. (Btw, it is a very nice opportunity to upgrade, today we released openSUSE 11.2 RC1 )

@Sebastian Hilbert The game was renamed to chromium-bsu in upstream meanwhile. I do not recommend using the older one, the new has lots of important fixes. (It is available in games repository).

@Livio This has nothing to do with Chromium. It is purely a freetype question.

Hi,

Please consider changing the package name. There is a game by the same name ‘chromium’

Thanks for considering this.

Question: I am still on openSUSE 11.0, will these packages work on 11.0, or do I need to upgrade?

What about freetype question?

@Chaz6 Are you using the correct package for your distribution? You can't mix 11.1 and Factory packages. We can meet on IRC to solve your problem interactively (prusnak on freenode).
