Re: [orca-list] google-chrome stable fedora 32 with all updates installed and --force-renderer-accessibility set as launch command, it fails to function

[Joanmarie Diggs <jdiggs igalia com>]

The --force-renderer-accessibility flag should no longer be needed if
you are using version 86.0.4199.0 or later.

The --enable-caret-browsing flag should no longer be needed if you are
using version 86.0.422.0 or later. F7 should toggle it.

The environment variable right now is still necessary.

Given that Majid's report was "things aren't working," using the flags
seemed prudent. Testing without the use of the flags -- assuming you're
in an environment where things definitely work when using the flags --
would be appreciated.

Thanks!
