It is one of the most used browsers (I use ungoogled chromium). Maybe it should be added again? In latest Chromium included at least 1 dependency gives 404, so even that may not be possible to be installed.

I spent a considerable amount of time on many different versions of chromium, and it is a real dog to try to get to work. Bruce wanted it out of the book, and from a shear maintenance point of view, ie the time needed to actually find even their so called stable build that would actually build is a nightmare. Not to mention the number of vulnerabilities. It really is better to be left out of the book, unless someone is prepared to make sure that all of the vulnerabilities are patched and that a regular up to date build can be achieved. It would require someone to only work on chromium, are you offering YOUR time to do that?
