<bugzilla at FreeBSD.org>'s request for maintainer-feedback to
chromium at FreeBSD.org:
Bug 204470: www/chromium: display sysctl requirements in pkg-message
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=204470

chromium-46.0.2490.80.patch

Should a user run /usr/local/bin/chrome from a GUI they may miss the message
that a sysctl should be set.  I believe having that information in the
pkg-message would be beneficial and helpful to new users.

As a response to

Patch attached
www/chromium: add sysctl prerequisites to pkg-message

- Aid user who runs chrome from GUI vice CLI that may miss the sysctl
requirement
- No PORTREVISION bump given trivial aspect of change
