 Btw. I got into similar troubles with Graphviz/dot (png output didn't work) on Slackware 14 and simply recompiling Graphviz fixed the problem. Btw. I got into similar troubles with Graphviz/dot (png output didn't work) on Slackware 14 and simply recompiling Graphviz fixed the problem.

 +Slackware64 14.2 and Chrome 70.x (October 2018)
 +
 +  * Slackware 14.2 also provides the Chrome slackbuild in extra/.
 +  * Chrome 70 (and possibly earlier) no longer uses the NSS library names that are patched in the slackbuild script (those paths don't need to be patched as the normal library names are used now)
 +  * Chrome 70 *requires* NSS >= 3.26, whereas Slackware 14.2 only provides 3.23. (Chrome will start, and then exit abruptly when you attempt to use it, with a message to that effect)
 +  * Slackware-current has mozilla-nss-3.39, this builds fine on 14.2, installs via ''upgradepkg'' and resolves that problem
