There is a heads-up discussion at https://lists.archlinux.org/pipermail/arch-dev-public/2021-January/030260.html . 1. Is it worth asking help from some free software org, since the problem is shared by other distributions? Perhaps google will agree to work with that org, as a representative of the distributions. Or,that a single distribtion will represent the other? 2. I hardly use chromium. Yet, few gov sites here mandate using it. At rare circumstancess, I have to deal with these gov sites. In short, I hardly knows, and don't care, about its Sync feature. 2.1 Can the package built, and run, without whatever is required for the Sync feature? 2.2 In case you will stop maintaining it and no one adopts it, can you upload it to the AUR, and disown it? -- u34
Actually, why not keeping it maintained without the "Sync Feature"? Is it something most users make use of? I use pretty much Firefox for everything, but I need to keep Chromium given some corporate web pages that only work on Chrome/Chromium. So I believe it's good for Arch to keep Chromium, and not sure about the rationale on no supporting Chromium without Sync. I bet it's pretty useful without it. I've been keeping an eye on that thread, but in the end devs are the ones deciding. Greetings ! -- Javier
