ungoogled-chromium-fedora

Fedora packaging for ungoogled-chromium.

CentOS 7 has reached EOL and CentOS 8 will reach EOL at the end of 2021, thus CentOS builds will no longer be provided. aarch64 builds are provided on a best-effort basis.

!!!WARNING: For legal reasons, the binaries we provide on OBS do not contain proprietary codecs. This includes MPEG families, H264 and other common codecs. If you wish to use those codecs, either compile yourself or use the Flatpak package instead!!!

Building

The following steps are for Fedora. For CentOS, extra files are needed. See sources.

1. Clone this repository

2. Create a build folder following https://rpm-packaging-guide.github.io/#rpm-packaging-workspace

3. Copy ungoogled-chromium.spec into SPECS

4. Copy all other files into SOURCES

5. Prepare the following files and copy them into SOURCES:

   • chromium source tarball:
     • If you set %global freeworld to 1, get the tarball from https://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/chromium-browser-official/chromium-%{version}.tar.xz
     • If %global freeworld is 0 (the default), generate the tarball by running ./chromium-latest.py --version %{version} --ffmpegclean --ffmpegarm
     • Note: DO NOT use the source from Github chromium mirror! The tarball you get will lack files you need to successfully build chromium!
   • ungoogled-chromium src from the corresponding tag (https://github.com/Eloston/ungoogled-chromium/archive/%{ungoogled_chromium_revision}/ungoogled-chromium-%{ungoogled_chromium_revision}.tar.gz)
   • depot_tools src tarball (https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/tools/depot_tools.git)
   • Fonts:
     • https://github.com/web-platform-tests/wpt/raw/master/fonts/Ahem.ttf
     • https://fontlibrary.org/assets/downloads/gelasio/4d610887ff4d445cbc639aae7828d139/gelasio.zip
     • https://download.savannah.nongnu.org/releases/freebangfont/MuktiNarrow-0.94.tar.bz2
   • https://www.x.org/releases/individual/proto/xcb-proto-1.14.tar.xz

6. Build

   • For binary package (.rpm)

     rpmbuild -bb SPECS/ungoogled-chromium.spec
     

     The RPM file will appear in RPMS after a successful build.

   • For source package (.srpm)

     rpmbuild -bs SPECS/ungoogled-chromium.spec
     

     The SRPM file will appear in SRPMS after a successful build.
