Chrome is mirror-restricted, because of: 9.2 Subject to section 1.2, you may not (and you may not permit anyone else to) copy, modify, create a derivative work of, reverse engineer, decompile or otherwise attempt to extract the source code of the Software or any part thereof, unless this is expressly permitted or required by law, or unless you have been specifically told that you may do so by Google, in writing. chrome-binary-plugins is not free software, or open source. There is little Gentoo can do when they keep changing the URL/hash without warning. You can file a bug to get the ebuild updated though. -- Rich
