Alright, here's a revised process to compile Chromium locally with tracing re-
enabled:
1. First, download the patch and save it as "enable-tracing.patch"
2. Run the following:
$ wget
https://salsa.debian.org/chromium-team/chromium/-/archive/c88b97a6dc183a6a7f8a05aee9e99957285a9371/chromium-c88b97a6dc183a6a7f8a05aee9e99957285a9371.tar.bz2
$ tar xf chromium-c88b97a6dc183a6a7f8a05aee9e99957285a9371.tar.bz2
$ cd chromium-c88b97a6dc183a6a7f8a05aee9e99957285a9371
$ patch -p1 < enable-tracing.patch
# mk-build-deps -i debian/control
$ ./debian/rules get-orig-source
$ cd chromium-79.0.3945.79
$ dpkg-buildpackage -b -uc
After several hours, packages should appear in chromium-
