Build chromium OS with local browser about chromium_os-raspberry_pi HOT 8 OPEN

@fydeos-alpha Could you help, sir?

I encount the same problem.

Remove CHROME_ORIGIN=LOCAL_SOURCE from make.conf will make it easier.

Removed CHROME_ORIGIN=LOCAL_SOURCE. It started to download source code from google server. But it did start to build without complicated configuation and syncing.

@killmind what's your meaning of "build without complicated configuration and syncing"?

from chromium_os-raspberry_pi.

When you clone the repository of chrome brower locally, it seems you would need to run sync_chrome manually to that local copy. I'm still investigating it.

I think the guide should be integral with everything inside to avoid confusion for beginners.
The raspberry_pi overy uses local source, which needs download chromium code first, and mount with cros_sdk.

To get chromium code

fetch --nohooks chromium

If it is broken, run this to continue or sync later.

gclient sync

There's problem to get WebRTC branch, and you may have to add this into ~/.gitconfig

[remote "origin"]
        fetch = +refs/branch-heads/*:refs/branch-heads/*

To sync with specific tag to match with raspbarry_pi overlay like r77, you need do this in chromium code, after first code syncing.

cd src
git checkout 77.0.3865.126
cd ..
gclient sync

After syncing, adding this line to end of .gclient in parent of src directory

target_os = ['chromeos']

Then you run cros_sdk to mount local chromium source code

cros_sdk --chrome-root ${chromium_path}

In cros_sdk environment, you could see chromium code mounted at /home/${your_account}/chrome_root directory. Then you can run build_packages or use "emerge-${BOARD} chromeos-base/chromeos-chrome" to build chromium.
