Install depot_tools as described here:

http://dev.chromium.org/developers/how-tos/install-depot-tools

Create a Chromium working directory, e.g.

mkdir ~/chromium

Clone this GitHub repository with the following command:

cd ~/chromium; git clone https://github.com/eth-srl/ChromeER.git src

Note that the repository is cloned in the src subdirectory. By default this command will checkout the srl branch.

Create a file named .gclient in the chromium directory (above src), with the following content:
solutions = [{
u'managed': False,
u'name': u'src',
u'url': u'https://github.com/eth-srl/ChromeER.git',
u'custom_deps': {},
u'deps_file': u'.DEPS.git',
}]
target_os = ['all']

(GNU/Linux only) From the src directory run:

build/install-build-deps.sh

If the above does not work directly (sometimes it asks to install mingw packages on Linux), then an alternative command is:

build/install-build-deps.sh --no-nacl

From the src directory run:

gclient sync

Checkout the srl branch for V8 and BlinkER to get the latest changes

cd ~/chromium/src/v8; git checkout srl

cd ~/chromium/src/third_party/WebKit; git checkout srl

Build Chromium with:

cd ~/chromium/src/out/Debug; ninja chrome

To run without sandbox on, type:

./chrome --no-sandbox

Otherwise, to build with sandbox, follow:

https://code.google.com/p/chromium/wiki/LinuxSUIDSandboxDevelopment

For more information, consult the developer pages at http://chromium.org

On some systems (e.g. Ubuntu) it may be necessary to give the user the necessaty prtace permissions. Do this with the command:

echo 0 | sudo tee /proc/sys/kernel/yama/ptrace_scope

On the srl branch, the build is modified not to tell gold to create .gdb_index section. Instead use build/gdb-add-index. Thus we ensure the gdb can understand and use the .gdb_index section format.
