Bug 212925: www/chromium: chrome.runtime.getPlatformInfo is broken
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=212925



--- Description ---
Trying to use chrome.runtime.getPlatformInfo Chromium API call [1] I get error
in terminal:
----
[2564:416779264:0923/191125:ERROR:linux_util.cc(122)] Not implemented reached
in std::string base::GetLinuxDistro()
----

Also this javascript error is thrown in Chromium:
----
Error in response to runtime.getPlatformInfo: TypeError: Cannot read property
'os' of undefined

Error
Unchecked runtime.lastError while running runtime.getPlatformInfo: Platform
information unavailable.
----

Chromium on FreeBSD should return some well known and documented by Google
value - "linux" or "openbsd" [2].

This error is prevents GNOME Shell integration for Chrome [3] to work on
FreeBSD.
