I will be glad to build it, *IF* I can reproduce what the script does inside an SRPM (looks like I should be able to). One of our rules is an SRPM for everything we release. The problem is, if he is not going to support it later, his gcc patches may not keep working on newer code and we only gain a couple of builds and run out of support. Since I personally use chrome as my browser (and obviously CentOS-6.4 as my OS :D) ... and want to continue to do so ... I will look at this soon. Thanks, Johnny Hughes
