Do you think it's a good idea to create a *wiki page* where we'll propose a universal way of building chromium packages ? Then, a TU or someone else who *can* maintain difficult PKGBUILDs, should upload them.
lets clean it :D.
i will let only one build from ubuntu ppa and only one build from google bot.
I vote for chromium-browser-dev (ppa) and chromium-snapshot(google bot) and chromium-browser-svn which is the only one that is building from source.
If chromium-browser-dev and chromium-snapshot doesn't have proper PKGBUILD for building native 64/32 we should ask the maintainer do that well and if he doesn't do that in couples of days, i will orphan it
what do you think about this?

Good idea. Three PKGBUILDs only then.
The one is ready (chromium-browser-svn), so we don't have to take care about it, it's OK.
The other two now: they must be autodownloading (like svn/git/cvs) the zip(googlebot) or deb (ppa) and 32 or 64bit according to system's $CARCH variable.
For the first one (googlebot), I already have a PKGBUILD ready for suggestion. If the wikipage is going to be created, i'll post it. For the second one (ppa), it's more difficult because, as I 've tried, wget/curl/elinks (used in order to download the html code and parse it in order to find the latest package), need a lot of commands to clear the html code. And the names used by ppa are also huge.
Hello,
I do not know (and honestly, do not even care) of all the differences that might be between teh versions, but do we really need the ubuntu version (ppa)? In other cases, we probably have a package build from sources and at most _one_ other release from upstream. And additionally the really free one: iron. Let's delete all the others. Regards Stefan
I concur about the PPA based packages but do not delete the chromium-browser-svn package, it is a source build!
