Yes, but he asked explicitly for Chromium and besides that, the Google Chrome RPM's are very bad from a packaging point of view. I'm giving talks about RPM packaging and I also have a talk called "Surviving the RPM Package and Repository Jungle". In that talk I use the Google Chrome RPM as an example of a very bad package. For example, ut has a nearly 1000 lines post-install script, it lacks 73 out of 93 dependencies, it installs 20 unpackaged files, etc. -- -- Jos Vos <[log in to unmask]> -- X/OS Experts in Open Systems BV | Phone: +31 20 6938364 -- Amsterdam, The Netherlands | Fax: +31 20 6948204
