Title:
Please add Provides: gnome-www-browser
Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in chromium-browser source package in Eoan:
Confirmed
Status in chromium-browser source package in Focal:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Some Debian packages depend on gnome-www-browser so please add
Provides: gnome-www-browser . I guess you could also add Provides: x
-www-browser but I see that fewer browsers do that.
You can see which packages provide and depend on this virtual package
with:
apt-cache showpkg gnome-www-browser
For instance, cinnamon-desktop-environment depends on gnome-www-
browser and it doesn't have the chromium-browser name in the
alternates (it has Debian's chromium name instead).
