Building from source #1

Thanks for your work on this! If you're not aware, then this is a long thread with many who tried configuring it: https://github.com/Eloston/ungoogled-chromium/issues/375

In following your instructions to build from source, I got this:

=> ungoogled-chromium-91.0.4472.164_1: patching: browser-size_t.patch.
The text leading up to this was:

Any ideas?

Also, I'm curious if you have verified GPU acceleration is working or if you don't plan to use VAAPI.

Greetings. I didn't noticed that are already efforts to build Ungoogled Chromium into Void Linux. I'll check it later, thanks.

About the build-from-source method please note that is currently broke, because, as you can see, the patch process fails. At this point I just changed the source code distfile from the Chromium original template, so it needs a lot of changes. I need to work more on this to manage build the browser from the source.

Meanwhile, I would recommend to use the pre-built version. Yes, I know that is outdated. I'm waiting for new tarballs to be released.

I did not tested the VAAPI support, but I think the Marmaduke build does that. There is an updated template for Void. If I find it, I'll send it you.

Gook luck, comrade. :D

Thanks! Seems someone got it working; maybe you can contribute there instead: https://github.com/DAINRA/ungoogled-chromium-void (also discussed at the end of thread I mentioned: https://github.com/Eloston/ungoogled-chromium/issues/375 )

Oh, thank you so much for the contribution! It is a relief to know that there is a repository that carries better updates and support than mine. I guess will study the code and try to contribute.

If mdedonno1337 updates his tarballs, I will keep updating this repository, as I consider that is a interesting alternative.
