chromium-54 is currently hard masked; it'd soon enter ~arch, and then stable in ~6 weeks. ffmpeg-3.0.1 is currently hard masked. These are the options I see for how to proceed. Feel free to share further alternatives. A. Prepare to unmask and eventually stabilize ffmpeg-3.0.1 B. Backport just the changes needed for chromium to older ffmpeg C. Mask chromium's system-ffmpeg flag when the dependency on ffmpeg-3.0.1 can't be satisfied D. Patch chromium not to require newer ffmpeg Please share your thoughts about pros, cons, and viability of each option. I'd certainly be willing to help with testing and making progress on these, and I could possibly use a fast machine as a tinderbox for this. That also means help is welcome. Paweł
