I did the following: 1) Add some Alpha defines into the file ipc/chromium/src/build/build_config.h. Namely: #elif defined(__alpha__) #define ARCH_CPU_ALPHA 1 #define ARCH_CPU_64_BITS 1 #else ... 2) Set optimization to use -O1 not -O2. 3) Now this one is *very* *interesting*. I added -Wl,--no-relax to LDFLAGS in debian/rules, but I think I got it wrong, because --no-relax did not appear anywhere in the logs, i.e., it did not get added to any of the linking stages, and what's more, the build completed without GPREL16 relocation errors!!!!!!! Make of that what you will. It is installed and working on a PWS600au under the xfce4 desktop environment, with KMS on a HD2400 Radeon card. I will get it packaged up properly and uploaded to the *unreleased* distribution at debian-ports. It should appear as version 8.0-3+alpha on your favourite mirror within a couple of days.
