You can try to create a symlink:
cd /usr/lib
ln -s libevent-1.4.so.2.1.3 libevent-1.4.so.1
Perhaps there will be more missing libs.

I get as error:

Despite the error messages, it opens, but every tab has the "dead tab icon"

Except this build, any other packages that is posted under this thread did not work for me eventhough they have a later version number. And slackbuild breaks. Thanks christian.
Chromium browser 11.0.652.0

After reading this vulnerability report (
http://www.kb.cert.org/vuls/id/258423), I didn't find any other ways than to compile the latest release of chromium from source with the slackbuild script available at
http://darkstar.ist.utl.pt/slackware/ad ... 652.0/src/ as well as at
http://repository.slacky.eu/slackware-1 ... 652.0/src/ for x86_64 arch. But each time I tried, I got the following error:
Exception: Call to 'pkg-config --cflags nss' returned exit status 1. while loading dependencies of base/base.gyp while loading dependencies of app/app.gyp while loading dependencies of build/all.gyp while trying to load build/all.gyp
I checked the dependencies list at
http://darkstar.ist.utl.pt/slackware/ad ... k-required and they all seems to have met. What am I missing?
Any pointer?
PS: Currently I am using the christian's v5.xx package which reportedly have the vulnerability and switched to firefox.

I also like Chromium and use it in Debian and Kubuntu. It is light and quick.
However my attempt to install and run Chromium on my 32bit install of Salix results in frequent Crashes of Web pages. Chromium itself will not crash but does malfunction in this way. So I got tired of this Behavior and uninstalled Chromium in My Salix install. Note that I am also running a Firefox install but for my usual Web Surfing in Salix I installed and use Seamonkey...Faster and Lighter then Firefox for everyday use.
I noted when examining running processes that Seamonkey uses 1/6 the resources that Firefox uses..

@sqlpython: After reading your post, I tested seamonkey, firefox and chromium and still chromium is the fastest and using the lowest among all
BTW, has anyone chromium-latest package built? If so, kindly point the link (could not find myself)! Thanks!
