A short description for the package:
ungoogled-chromium is Chromium, sans integration with Google. It also
features
some tweaks to enhance privacy, control, and transparency (almost all of
which
require manual activation or enabling).
ungoogled-chromium retains the default Chromium experience as closely as
possible. Unlike other Chromium forks that have their own visions of a web
browser, ungoogled-chromium is essentially a drop-in replacement for
Chromium.
This package is not eligible to be included in Fedora because of proprietary
codecs.
This is my first RPM Fusion package. I wish to keep on improving it. I also
seek
a sponsor as I'm not a Fedora sponsored packager nor an RPM Fusion sponsored
packager.

rpmlint on source RPM
-----------------------
This package is primarily based on Tom Callaway's <spot@fedoraproject.org>
work.
All rpmlint warnings and errors are also reproducible for the source RPM of the
Fedora `chromium` package.
* E: hardcoded-library-path in /usr/lib/libc.so
Caused by this line:
BuildRequires: /lib/libc.so.6 /usr/lib/libc.so
Tom Callaway commented it as follows:
# Really, this is what we want:
# BuildRequires: glibc-devel(x86-32) libgcc(x86-32)
# But, koji only offers glibc32. Maybe that's enough.
# This BR will pull in either glibc.i686 or glibc32.

* W: unversioned-explicit-provides bundled(skia)
* W: unversioned-explicit-provides bundled(xdg-mime)
* W: unversioned-explicit-provides bundled(xdg-user-dirs)
These warnings are caused by `Provides: bundled(...)` lines. Chromium uses
its
own forks of third-party libraries -- unbundling or versioning seem to be
impossible.
* E: hardcoded-library-path in /usr/lib/%{chromium_browser_channel}
* E: hardcoded-library-path in
/usr/lib/%{chromium_browser_channel}/%{chromium_browser_channel}.sh
* E: hardcoded-library-path in /usr/lib/chrome-sandbox
These errors are caused by `semanage` invocations:
semanage fcontext -a -t bin_t /usr/lib/%{chromium_browser_channel}
semanage fcontext -a -t bin_t
/usr/lib/%{chromium_browser_channel}/%{chromium_browser_channel}.sh
semanage fcontext -a -t chrome_sandbox_exec_t /usr/lib/chrome-sandbox
Tom Callaway commented that semanage itself adjusts the lib directory naming.

rpmlint on x86_64 RPM
-----------------------
The most of the following warnings and errors are reproducible for the Fedora
`chromium` package.
* E: explicit-lib-dependency libcanberra-gtk3(x86-64)
Chromium expects this GTK module for some reason.
* W: unstripped-binary-or-object /usr/lib64/ungoogled-chromium/chrome-sandbox
* W: unstripped-binary-or-object /usr/lib64/ungoogled-chromium/chromedriver
* W: unstripped-binary-or-object /usr/lib64/ungoogled-chromium/headless_shell
* W: unstripped-binary-or-object /usr/lib64/ungoogled-chromium/protoc
* W: unstripped-binary-or-object
/usr/lib64/ungoogled-chromium/swiftshader/libEGL.so
* W: unstripped-binary-or-object
/usr/lib64/ungoogled-chromium/swiftshader/libGLESv2.so
* W: unstripped-binary-or-object
/usr/lib64/ungoogled-chromium/ungoogled-chromium
I'm not sure how to resolve this. Fedora package has similar warnings.
* W: conffile-without-noreplace-flag /etc/ungoogled-chromium/master_preferences
Contains distro-specific settings, noreplace flag seems to be needless.
* E: missing-call-to-setgroups-before-setuid
/usr/lib64/ungoogled-chromium/chrome-sandbox
* E: missing-call-to-chdir-with-chroot

* E: non-standard-executable-perm /usr/lib64/ungoogled-chromium/chrome-sandbox

I'm not sure what can I do here. Both Fedora package and chromium-vaapi have
similar errors.
