`www-client/brave-bin`: `crashpad_handler` require execute permission

owl4ce commented 3 years ago

I forgot since which version, in my system, it needs to do as in the title above.

doas chmod +x /opt/brave/crashpad_handler

If not then got this output .. (stuck there)

[13114:13114:0807/110116.176760:FATAL:double_fork_and_exec.cc(131)] execv /opt/brave/crashpad_handler: Permission denied (13)

I want to confirm is this happening on your system? If yes then make changes to the www-client/brave-bin ebuild.

Thank you.

Also, would be good if to enable hardware video decoding by default.

X11: --use-gl=desktop --enable-features=VaapiVideoDecoder XWayland: --use-gl=egl --enable-features=VaapiVideoDecoder
