Package: chromium-driver
Version: 58.0.3029.96-1
Severity: wishlist
It is rather confusing that the chromium-driver package has a version
number like 58.x.y.z, when the upstream version for chromedriver, and
the version reported by /usr/bin/chromedriver is actually 2.27.
Would it be possible to extract chromium-driver from the chromium
source package and use the upstream version numbers?

Package version numbers in debian are based on the source package,
which is chromium for chromedriver.
It is possible to set the version for a binary package different than
the source package's version, but it's not really a great idea in most
circumstances. You can always use chromedriver --version to check the
version number.
Best wishes,
Mike
