Hello, I'm using Google Chrome in multiple machines, some of them running Windows OSs. In my Arch machines I'm using Chromium from the extra repository, I have different environments but my Gnome based one is quite complete yet I still can't sync passwords.
What's needed for it to be able to sync passwords? Maybe some compile time flag?
Here is a list of all the packages I have installed in the Gnome machine, in case I'm missing something: http://pastebin.com/19AQhQsj

Huh, that's strange. I checked it on my browser and there's doesn't seem to be a password sync option under the sync settings. A short Google expedition reveals that I'm not the only one. Luckily, the first comment explains it. It was recently disabled by default because it doesn't play nice with GNOME Keyring. To enable it, start chromium with the --enable-password-sync and --password-store=basic flags. Haven't tried it my self, though, as I don't really need that particular feature.

Oh... I see, so it's disabled by now because of compatibility issues. I'll wait until it's been properly implemented.
I've tried to use those flags when starting Chromium (even deleting everything and creating a new profile) but they don't seem to work, but thanks for the pointer anyway!
Kind regards.
