You're on x86_64, right? There's a build bug on that arch where chrome proper and nacl pick different build architectures or something like that. You can work around it by setting the envvar GYP_DEFINES to target_arch=ia32 or target_arch=x64 so they don't try to pick an arch themselves. You'll have to run gclient runhooks to rebuild the scons files from gyp. -- Jacob --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ Chromium Developers mailing list: chromium-dev@googlegroups.com View archives, change email options, or unsubscribe: http://groups.google.com/group/chromium-dev -~--~~~~--~~--~--~---

To update, the issue will probably be resolved in gyp. Nacl has a bit of an unusual build configuration, but it should probably be supported.

[chromium-dev] WebKit gardening and media layout tests
If you roll WebKit DEPS and media layout tests start failing, don't fret! Mark them as PASS FAIL and assign them to bug 13907. Don't worry about specifying the operating system or release/debug -- our code is mostly platform agnostic so if it flakily fails on one bot, it's only a matter of time before it shows up on a different build.

[chromium-dev] A tale of two (or more) syncing extensions, and a proposal
[re-sending from correct email account] Hi, I wrote up a document that discusses some interesting unintentional relationships that can exist between independent extensions, and how this general problem also currently affects the browser sync engine. This issue was discovered from trying to explain the primary symptom of unusually high syncing traffic generated by Chrome clients. Please find it here: A Tale of Two (or more) Sync Engineshttp://docs.google.com/Doc?docid=0Aa_pnb1d4_gnZDUzOWp4bV8wZHNzdHdnczIhl=en You should read that before continuing! This led to me thinking about what we do long term, short term, or basically before Chrome Sync and extensions are running in parallel in a beta channel environment. You'll see a bit of this at the end of the first document, but after posing the problem as an extensions problem I ended up at a random idea that I think makes at least a little sense, though I admit I was having fun thinking and writing about it so maybe I missed some major roadblocks along the way. There are downsides, mainly revolving around the added hand-holding we would impose on extensions. Please read! Hoping for comments and feedback. Extensions API quotaserverhttp://docs.google.com/Doc?docid=0Aa_pnb1d4_gnZDUzOWp4bV8xZnhqaHJmZjMhl=en In addition to that, Colin and Todd (cc'ed) brought up some sync specific ideas they have (I mention it a bit at the end of the first doc).

[chromium-dev] Re: A tale of two (or more) syncing extensions, and a proposal
Have not read all of it yet, but am in favor in general of having some sort of quota for extension api calls to protect from meltdown. We have a very convenient chokepoint to implement this in our system, so it would just be a matter of a more detailed design of the heuristics to use for each API type. - a On Wed, Oct 21, 2009 at 5:08 PM, Tim Steele t...@chromium.org wrote: [re-sending from correct email account] Hi, I wrote up a document that discusses some interesting unintentional relationships that can exist between independent extensions, and how this general problem also currently affects the browser sync engine.

[chromium-dev] Linux/Stability - Remember to check the return value from GTK functions.
Hi Linux folks, This is a kind reminder to check the return values from GTK functions. Every time you put the unchecked result from, say, gtk_file_chooser_get_filename() into a FilePath or std::string, you risk a browser process crash if the result is NULL. I just triaged several crashes of this type. There's probably more... http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=25490 http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=25491 http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=25493 http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=25494 --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ Chromium Developers mailing list: chromium-dev@googlegroups.com View archives, change email options, or unsubscribe: http://groups.google.com/group/chromium-dev -~--~~~~--~~--~--~---
