Yeah, you should feel free to do that. I'm not sure what the advantage of doing that would be. The Chromium builds don't auto-update, so they quickly become out of date. The original poster wanted to run a build of Chromium from the stable branch with extensions enabled, but that's not possible because the extension system doesn't exist in the 172 branch.

[chromium-dev] Re: Stack traces on layout test crashes
FYI, the code in debug_util.h will generate a stack trace, but symbol resolution doesn't work on mac. Last I messed with it (~4 months ago), mac didn't work because most of the symbols are private. Mark Mentovai suggested trying to reimplement dladdr, but I could never get it working. Here's the uploaded code if anyone to mess with it: http://codereview.chromium.org/164228 On windows and linux, assuming you actually have symbols generated (which I don't think you do for windows on the build bots), getting a trace should be as simple as creating one of those StackTrace objects in debug_util.h, and calling PrintBacktrace or OutputToStream on it. The hard part is knowing when to create the object, and making sure you're on the right thread. Also, these functions do some heap allocations so using them in a crash handler might be a bit unsafe...but if it's crashing, and there's already no way to get a core or something, making it crash harder isn't going to matter. -Albert On Sat, Aug 8, 2009 at 11:12 AM, Jeremy Orlow jor...@chromium.org wrote: I'll take a look.

[chromium-dev] Re: [chromium-discuss] Re: getting latest stable Chromium
Yeah, obviously, if you have the resources.And I am suggesting and requesting that, merely for testing purposes. This could help people test the binary up front without having to install, for example. Web developers can use it as well as the community. This will be a handy thing, anyway. Is there someone specific this should be articulated to? ☆PhistucK On Sat, Aug 8, 2009 at 20:36, Adam Barth aba...@chromium.org wrote: On Sat, Aug 8, 2009 at 9:53 AM, PhistucKphist...@gmail.com wrote: But this is not official, just like the timely snapshots of Chromium during the day. They are known to be unstable and, most importantly, not official. Why can a Chromium build, simply based on the stable branch, not be automatically built? I mean, what hesitation is there? It could be. It's a matter of the weighing the costs in terms of user confusing against the benefits, which have not been articulated. Also, the resources to make that possible are really minimal, that is for sure (right?). But I understand this is not the consideration here. One of the great things about open source is that if this scratches an itch for you, you can build the binaries yourself and post them on your own web site.

It will probably cost you about $10/month: http://www.1and1.com/ http://www.dreamhost.com/ If it's not worth $10/month to you, it's probably not worthwhile.
