Description

The only reason we don't have Chrome/Chromium? on the clusters through a Debian package, despite repeated requests from the community, is it updates way too fast.

That may be less true of Chrome than Firefox now.

  • Milestone changed from The Distant Future to Precise Beta

I'm not convinced we want to switch the default browser (yet), but chromium-browser has been added as of extra-software 1.4, and is there for all releases we care about (e.g. everything except Hardy).

1.4 has been in production for a while.
