Brave Browser Logo

Brave is a web browser based on chromium that claims to be faster and safer by blocking tracking scripts and ads.

At the moment, Funtoo only ships brave as binary.

root # emerge www-client/brave-bin

If Brave does not start and shows an error about sandboxing, you may need to enable userns in your kernel.

root # root # echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/unprivileged_userns_clone
root # root # echo 'kernel.unprivileged_userns_clone=1' > /etc/sysctl.d/unprivileged_userns_clone.conf

To do so, you can append the following line into /etc/sysctl.conf:

   /etc/sysctl.conf
kernel.unprivileged_userns_clone = 1

and run sysctl -p.

Running brave with the --no-sandbox flag is not recommended for security reasons.
