   I was just trying yesterday for a bit to get a Linux x86-64
Chrome binary to work. I did it manually, using rpm2pkg to add
dependencies which we don't have packaged yet:

cd /usr/pkg/emul/linux
rpm2pkg /tmp/google-chrome-stable_current_x86_64.rpm
rpm2pkg /tmp/libgcrypt11-1.4.4-6.1.x86_64.rpm
rpm2pkg /tmp/libbz2-1-1.0.5-38.6.x86_64.rpm
rpm2pkg /tmp/dbus-1-glib-0.86-1.19.x86_64.rpm
rpm2pkg /tmp/libgpg-error0-1.7-7.1.x86_64.rpm

   It also needed suse113_gtk2, suse113_alsa, and suse113_libcups.

   However, the result doesn't do anything useful:

capo { ~ } % env LANG=C LC_ALL=C /emul/linux/bin/bash /emul/linux/usr/bin/google-chrome
/emul/linux/usr/bin/google-chrome: /lib64/libz.so.1: no version information available (required by /emul/linux/usr/bin/google-chrome)
/emul/linux/usr/bin/google-chrome: /lib64/libz.so.1: no version information available (required by /emul/linux/usr/bin/google-chrome)
prctl(PR_SET_DUMPABLE): Function not implemented
^CCheck failed: g_shutdown_pipe_write_fd != -1
Check failed: g_shutdown_pipe_write_fd != -1
Abort (core dumped)
capo { ~ } % 

   No windows; it just sits there until I hit Control-C. I haven't
done any more analysis on it.
