17 Yes, it isn't in the tree. I've tried both the Appimage version and the .rpm,
18 the latter after rpm2targz. I installed them in my home directory.

27 Yes; this is what I get:
28
29 $ ./Bitwarden*/opt/Bitwarden/bitwarden
30 A JavaScript error occurred in the main process
31 Uncaught Exception:
32 Error: /tmp/.org.chromium.Chromium.QkN0cP: failed to map segment from shared
33 object

36 I haven't played with java before, so I'm trying to follow the gentoo wiki. My
37 first question is whether I need a jdk as well as a jre. The wiki talks
38 blithely about virtual machines, and I'm left to guess whether the jre is the
39 jvm, as it seems. I'm currently installing openjre and openjdk; icedtea-bin is
40 also installed.
