Hello, > I suspect that debian's libvpx might need to be build with experimental features enabled (similar to a previous bug report), in order to include the absent header files. This will build the lib, but the header isn't correctly exported. They don't export the header file for that and the

Hello, My work is in this repo: https://salsa.debian.org/mimi8/chromium/-/tree/master I'm updating the commit every time I make a change. Making a new commit for each file doesn't really make sense, since those are separate files anyway. There is another repo from another person that also

Hi there, Thank you for all of the great work on this so far! I'm interested in helping with this effort, and very familiar with C++ code and processes in Google code (though not specifically Chromium). I have gotten the 83/84 versions in unstable/experimental building locally in a container

Hello, Thank you for your reply. libvpx got updated in Debian, but I can't use it because it's missing a lib. I also had issues with harfbuzz, so I'm using bundled versions of those libs as you are. I also used your ozone patch because it is match cleaner than mine. With that I was able to build
