chromium-52.0.2743.116-10.fc23

FEDORA-2016-3a8d9311f8 created by spot 8 years ago for Fedora 23

Disable gtk3 support. It causes issues with hidpi, Wayland, and has incorrect color highlighting.


Disabled hidpi option in Chromium. Cleanup widevine handling so that third party addon package can exist. Add Requires(post) for selinux deps. Fix provides/requires to not include private libs.


On 2016-08-04 Google released Chrome 52.0.2743.116 which fixes at least 8 security issues: CVE-2016-5141, CVE-2016-5142, CVE-2016-5139, CVE-2016-5140, CVE-2016-5145, CVE-2016-5143 and CVE-2016-5144.

  • Adds additional ICU Text codec aliases (from openSUSE via Russian Fedora)
  • Uses PIE in the Linux sandbox (from openSUSE via Russian Fedora)
  • Enables ARM CPU detection for webrtc (from archlinux via Russian Fedora)
