Arch: version 147→148, drop enable_nacl (removed upstream), fix
nv12-external-oes patch context for 148 (base/numerics/safe_conversions.h
include removed upstream). Header comment updated: native build fiction →
cross-compile reality.
Debian: new build-deb.sh that assembles .deb from pre-built artifacts
on CT 220 (data). Same binary artifacts as the Arch package, launcher at
/usr/bin/chromium-fourier (no Conflicts with stock chromium on Debian).
Both packages published to packages.reauktion.de:
- Arch: marfrit/aarch64/chromium-fourier 1:148.0.7778.178-1
- Debian: trixie+bookworm/main/arm64 chromium-fourier 1:148.0.7778.178-1

Initial chromium-fourier shape on the chromium-builder@boltzmann LXD
container we provisioned today. Approach is the 7Ji-style "tarball +
system tools" pattern (no gclient/CIPD, the linux-arm64 dependency
binaries don't exist anyway) but stripped of the MPP/X11/panfork
specifics — chromium-fourier targets mainline kernel + Wayland +
panfrost/panthor + V4L2 stateless on /dev/video0, not the vendor
stack 7Ji's chromium-mpp targets.
PKGBUILD highlights:
- pkgver=147.0.7727.116 (current Chrome stable as of 2026-04-25)
- gn args: use_v4l2_codec=true, use_v4lplugin=true, use_linux_v4l2_only=true,
use_vaapi=true. The first three are the magic that unlocks V4L2VDA on
Linux non-ChromeOS without source patches; if they're sufficient on
their own, the chromeos-pipeline-bypass patch stays a no-op.
- ffmpeg_branding="Chrome" + proprietary_codecs=true for H.264.
- enable_widevine=false, enable_nacl=false to keep the tree small.
- Currently development-shaped: prepare()/build() operate on a
pre-extracted /build/chromium/src rather than makepkg-fetched
source. Will switch to canonical source=(...tarball.xz) shape once
the patches stabilise.
patches/chromeos-pipeline-bypass.patch is a placeholder; the actual
patch (if any) gets developed once we see what 7Ji's gn args do or
don't unlock for us.
