My thoughts on Slackware, life and everything

July update for Chromium 126

The latest release of the Chromium source code (version 126.0.6478.182 was made available on July 16th) addresses several vulnerabilities as usual, some of which are rated as ‘High’ but none ‘Critical’ and also no new 0-days are reported.

You can fetch my Slackware 15.0 and -current packages both for chromium and (hopefully soon, because its source has not been released yet) also chromium-ungoogled . You may prefer one of the mirror servers (like my own US server and in a short while, the UK mirror) in case my primary slackware.nl server is not responding or too slow.

I am slowly transitioning back from being a caregiver for my mother (which absorbed me completely for 10 months) to a life where I have time and energy in the evenings to hack on Slackware again. You will soon find the next installment in the Slackware Cloud Server series here on the blog – an article dedicated to building a Docker stack as cloud storage backend for the open source Ente Auth 2-factor authentication app.

Cheers, Eric

    Thanks Eric for your commitment. Good to hear things are getting better again.
    The chromium-ungoogled source is available now, by the way.
    Cheers, Marco

    Just a heads up for building the next Ungoogled Chromium, this patch (which is merged today):
    https://github.com/ungoogled-software/ungoogled-chromium/pull/3072
    adds 27 new locales, which, by my estimation, makes the package about 50 MB larger.
    If you don’t want that you have to exclude it I think.
    Cheers, Marco

      If the added language packs are that big, I could split them off into a ‘l10n’ sub-package.

      That’s uncompressed of course, sorry.
