I think (emphasis on the think) that qtwebkit needs libxml2 with -icu,
and chromium needs libxml2 with +icu. As far as I can tell from reading
a couple bug reports, it looks like you can rebuild qtwebkit with
-gstreamer (since that's what causes the !icu? blocker) and then you
should be able to install chromium. Apparently icu is pretty annoying.

Alternatively, you could just uninstall qtwebkit if you're not using it
for anything.
