Bugzilla Automation <bugzilla@FreeBSD.org> has asked freebsd-chromium (Nobo= dy) <chromium@FreeBSD.org> for maintainer-feedback: Bug 255995: www/chromium: virtual_oss dependency remove or make optional https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D255995 --- Description --- virtual_oss is not a runtime dependency for chromium. You need to configure= it before using, so it won't help you if it's installed with chromium. And it's useless with ALSA(alsa-lib supports asound.conf) and PulseAudio, both can select audio input/output. Now it forced to be installed even if won't be used. virtual_oss dependency should be removed or be optional and enabled by default with only SNDIO backend.
