Hi All,
First of all, I thank the entire team that ported the best browser Chromium (you have to admit this even if you are not a Google fan) to FreeBSD. However as a KDE/XFCE user I'm annoyed with its build-time dependency on gconf2 (and consequently on orbit2). Openoffice for instance can be compiled without gconf2 despite being a gtk-based application. I don't see an option to do the same with Chromium. I don't understand why most of the good gtk applications are made GNOME-centric. Even the XFCE browser Midori depends on gconf2 and libgnome-keyring!
My question is "Is there a way to compile Chromium without gconf2?". (Also the Chromium icon does not appear on the KDE4 menu by default. I had to add it manually)
A final comment on the browser. It is simply the best of the lot! Startup is very fast and the browsing experience even better.
Thanks in advance.
