Bug#941060: chromium: When will the upgrade to v77 reach debian?
Package: chromium Followup-For: Bug #941060 Oddly, no extension broke after the upgrade to v78, despite the 2 version difference.

Bug#941060: chromium: When will the upgrade to v77 reach debian?
Package: chromium Followup-For: Bug #941060 For starters, the source packages of v78 have reached the repos yesterday, at long last. https://tracker.debian.org/news/1077494/accepted-chromium-780390487-1-source- into-unstable/ As for the "Updates used to be provided regularly" part. As a user whose half the bug reports start with "please update X to its new version" I can assure you that not all debian maintainers are punctual (maybe not the right word) in updating their packages. There are packages which are simply abandoned and have not gotten any updates in years, despite being regularly updated by upstream and packages who get updated after a lot of request, e.g. qbittorrent was updated to 4.1.x after a developer of the app himself opened an issue report here (#908974)! Thankfully, chromium was not one of them until 76. Sadly, it now is. On top of that, let's just say that after the release of debian 10 as stable last July, the pace of which packages are updated is much slower than the previous times. Why? I have no idea. All I can see is that slow pace being reflected on major and minor packages, e.g. plasma and its apps were updated in September and some other Chromium is/was no exception to this... idleness. The differences chromium has compared to the rest is that a) chromium is popular and b) it has a built in mechanism which warns the user, thus the many bug reports. Can you imagine what would happen if every app that now lags behind had a similar built in mechanism? And that was it. Although I have moved to chrome and I am not willing to return to chromium anytime soon, I will install it as soon as it reaches the repos. I have kept my chromium profile intact and, before deleting it forever, I am curious to see what issues will suck a major change (v76 to v78) will bring, e.g. I am 99% sure that at least 1 of my 4 extensions will break and I will have to reinstall it and reconfigure it again. p.s. I think that an explanation from the maintainers for that huge delay is kinda mandatory now. -- System Information: Debian Release: bullseye/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 5.3.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE, TAINT_OOT_MODULE, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US:en (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages chromium depends on: pn chromium-common ii libasound2 1.1.8-2 ii libatk-bridge2.0-0 2.34.1-1 ii libatk1.0-0 2.34.1-1 ii libatomic1 9.2.1-16 ii libatspi2.0-02.34.0-3 ii libavcodec58 10:4.2.1-dmo6 ii libavformat5810:4.2.1-dmo6 ii libavutil56 10:4.2.1-dmo6 ii libc62.29-2 ii libcairo-gobject21.16.0-4 ii libcairo21.16.0-4 ii libcups2 2.3.0-6 ii libdbus-1-3 1.12.16-2 ii libdrm2 2.4.99-1 ii libevent-2.1-6 2.1.8-stable-4 ii libexpat12.2.9-1 ii libflac8 1.3.3-1 ii libfontconfig1 2.13.1-2+b1 ii libfreetype6 2.10.1-2 ii libgcc1 1:9.2.1-16 ii libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 2.40.0+dfsg-1 ii libglib2.0-0 2.62.2-2 ii libgtk-3-0 3.24.12-1 ii libharfbuzz0b2.6.2-1 ii libicu63 63.2-2 ii libjpeg62-turbo 1:1.5.2-2+b1 ii libjsoncpp1 1.7.4-3+b1 ii liblcms2-2 2.9-3+b1 pn libminizip1 ii libnspr4 2:4.23-1 ii libnss3 2:3.47-1 ii libopenjp2-7 2.3.1-1 ii libopus0 1.3-1+b1 ii libpango-1.0-0 1.42.4-7 ii libpangocairo-1.0-0 1.42.4-7 ii libpci3 1:3.6.2-2 ii libpng16-16 1.6.37-1 ii libpulse013.0-3 pn libre2-5 ii libsnappy1v5 1.1.7-1+b1 ii libstdc++6 9.2.1-16 ii libvpx6 1.8.1-dmo1 ii libwebp6 0.6.1-2+b1 ii libwebpdemux20.6.1-2+b1 ii libwebpmux3 0.6.1-2+b1 ii libx11-6 2:1.6.8-1 ii libx11-xcb1 2:1.6.8-1 ii libxcb1 1.13.1-2 ii libxcomposite1 1:0.4.4-2 ii libxcursor1 1:1.2.0-2 ii libxdamage1 1:1.1.5-1 ii libxext6 2:1.3.3-1+b2 ii libxfixes3 1:5.0.3-1 ii libxi6 2:1.7.9-1 ii libxml2 2.9.4+dfsg1-7+b3 ii libxrandr2 2:1.5.1-1 ii libxrender1 1:0.9.10-1 ii libxslt1.1 1.1.32-2.2 ii libxss1 1:1.2.3-1 ii libxtst6 2:1.2.3-1 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.11.dfsg-1+b1 Versions of packages chromium recommends: pn chromium-sandbox Versions of packages chromium suggests: pn chromium-driver pn chromium-l10n pn chromium-shell
Bug#941060: chromium: When will the upgrade to v77 reach debian?
Package: chromium Followup-For: Bug #941060 It's a real shame that chromium's built in mechanism had to be triggered in order for the typical debian users to understand how far behind debian's chromium is. I had opened this bug report 1+ month ago and yet the "advocates" of this bad situation said that the devs need time etc. Time is up as it seems and the package needs to be updated asap! Of course, as I have read in other bug reports and on reddit, there are workarounds to this, but the real issue remains: chromium on debian is not updated as regularly as it used to and that is a major security issue. As I said above, I moved to chrome the next day 78 became available, so this is the last bug report on chromium I open and reply to. Last time I had chrome on my systems, google was still offering it as a 32bit package and firefox was on 3.x! Shame. p.s. Debian pts MUST get a "flag as out of date" button. Or a better way to "wake up" the maintainers who keep their packages unmaintained for more than a period of time after which issues arise. -- System Information: Debian Release: bullseye/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 5.3.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE, TAINT_OOT_MODULE, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=ERROR: ld.so: object 'libgtk3-nocsd.so.0' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded (cannot open shared object file): ignored.

Package: chromium Version: 76.0.3809.100-1 Followup-For: Bug #941060 I forgot to say that I would prefer debian to have the latest version of any browser than have the latest version of gnome/kde/whatever-desktop-enviroment- you-use or mpv/geany/putty/whatever-app-you-use-daily and I think that it should prioritize that over anything non-security related. I am just mentionning it, because I also heard someone say that this month (= September) debian updated plasma and its apps to a newer version, so there was no time for other "inferior" packages. -- System Information: Debian Release: bullseye/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 5.2.0-3-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE, TAINT_OOT_MODULE, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US:en (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages chromium depends on: ii chromium-common 76.0.3809.100-1 ii libasound2 1.1.8-2 ii libatk-bridge2.0-0 2.34.1-1 ii libatk1.0-0 2.34.1-1 ii libatomic1 9.2.1-8 ii libatspi2.0-02.34.0-3 ii libavcodec58 10:4.2.1-dmo3 ii libavformat5810:4.2.1-dmo3 ii libavutil56 10:4.2.1-dmo3 ii libc62.29-2 ii libcairo-gobject21.16.0-4 ii libcairo21.16.0-4 ii libcups2 2.3.0-5 ii libdbus-1-3 1.12.16-2 ii libdrm2 2.4.99-1 ii libevent-2.1-6 2.1.8-stable-4 ii libexpat12.2.9-1 ii libflac8 1.3.3-1 ii libfontconfig1 2.13.1-2+b1 ii libfreetype6 2.9.1-4 ii libgcc1 1:9.2.1-8 ii libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 2.40.0+dfsg-1 ii libglib2.0-0 2.62.1-1 ii libgtk-3-0 3.24.12-1 ii libharfbuzz0b2.6.2-1 ii libicu63 63.2-2 ii libjpeg62-turbo 1:1.5.2-2+b1 ii libjsoncpp1 1.7.4-3+b1 ii liblcms2-2 2.9-3+b1 ii libminizip1 1.1-8+b1 ii libnspr4 2:4.21-2 ii libnss3 2:3.45-1 ii libopenjp2-7 2.3.1-1 ii libopus0 1.3-1+b1 ii libpango-1.0-0 1.42.4-7 ii libpangocairo-1.0-0 1.42.4-7 ii libpci3 1:3.6.2-2 ii libpng16-16 1.6.37-1 ii libpulse013.0-2 ii libre2-5 20190901+dfsg-1 ii libsnappy1v5 1.1.7-1+b1 ii libstdc++6 9.2.1-8 ii libvpx6 1.8.1-dmo1 ii libwebp6 0.6.1-2+b1 ii libwebpdemux20.6.1-2+b1 ii libwebpmux3 0.6.1-2+b1 ii libx11-6 2:1.6.8-1 ii libx11-xcb1 2:1.6.8-1 ii libxcb1 1.13.1-2 ii libxcomposite1 1:0.4.4-2 ii libxcursor1 1:1.2.0-2 ii libxdamage1 1:1.1.5-1 ii libxext6 2:1.3.3-1+b2 ii libxfixes3 1:5.0.3-1 ii libxi6 2:1.7.9-1 ii libxml2 2.9.4+dfsg1-7+b3 ii libxrandr2 2:1.5.1-1 ii libxrender1 1:0.9.10-1 ii libxslt1.1 1.1.32-2.1 ii libxss1 1:1.2.3-1 ii libxtst6 2:1.2.3-1 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.11.dfsg-1+b1 Versions of packages chromium recommends: ii chromium-sandbox 76.0.3809.100-1 Versions of packages chromium suggests: pn chromium-driver pn chromium-l10n pn chromium-shell Versions of packages chromium-common depends on: ii x11-utils 7.7+4 ii xdg-utils 1.1.3-1 Versions of packages chromium-common recommends: ii chromium-sandbox 76.0.3809.100-1 ii dunst [notification-daemon] 1.4.1-1 ii fonts-liberation 1:1.07.4-10 ii libgl1-mesa-dri 19.2.1-1 pn libu2f-udev ii notification-daemon 3.20.0-4 pn system-config-printer pn upower Versions of packages chromium-sandbox depends on: ii libatomic1 9.2.1-8 ii libc6 2.29-2 ii libgcc1 1:9.2.1-8 ii libstdc++6 9.2.1-8 -- no debconf information
Bug#941060: chromium: When will the upgrade to v77 reach debian?
Package: chromium Version: 76.0.3809.100-1 Followup-For: Bug #941060 As I have said at the beginning of the bug report, I need the latest version of the browser because of my bank. This is the only site that literally demands it. That is also the reason I do not use firefox esr, because it identifies as "old" version and the site does not log me in. Other than that, I also want my browser to be secure, and since chromium does not have an esr version like firefox, the only way to have all the latest security updates is to have the latest available version. And if you check here, there are 10+ cve that are open right now that debian does not have the latest version. https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/source-package/chromium If you, as a user, want to stick to an older version for any reason, stick to it, but please do not use it for serious online tasks where security is the top concern, e.g. web banking. Furthermore, I know how much time is required to build chromium, that is why I complained 2 weeks after the release, because I did not expect it to be ready on day 1 (although it usually is). Moreover, I use chromium on windows, for the last 5+ years. I get it from a github repo and its maintainer has never missed a single major version all those years, although he must have missed a couple of minor ones. Assuming that he builds it on his pc, he does a better job than debian in keeping it up to date. And he is a single person as it seems. Last but not least, I also refuse to use snap apps, for the well known drawbacks they have, so I won't install it as a snap app. I hope I answered all your questions, but feel free to ask me anything. -- System Information: Debian Release: bullseye/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 5.2.0-3-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE, TAINT_OOT_MODULE, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US:en (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages chromium depends on: ii chromium-common 76.0.3809.100-1 ii libasound2 1.1.8-2 ii libatk-bridge2.0-0 2.34.1-1 ii libatk1.0-0 2.34.1-1 ii libatomic1 9.2.1-8 ii libatspi2.0-02.34.0-3 ii libavcodec58 10:4.2.1-dmo3 ii libavformat5810:4.2.1-dmo3 ii libavutil56 10:4.2.1-dmo3 ii libc62.29-2 ii libcairo-gobject21.16.0-4 ii libcairo21.16.0-4 ii libcups2 2.3.0-5 ii libdbus-1-3 1.12.16-2 ii libdrm2 2.4.99-1 ii libevent-2.1-6 2.1.8-stable-4 ii libexpat12.2.9-1 ii libflac8 1.3.3-1 ii libfontconfig1 2.13.1-2+b1 ii libfreetype6 2.9.1-4 ii libgcc1 1:9.2.1-8 ii libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 2.40.0+dfsg-1 ii libglib2.0-0 2.62.1-1 ii libgtk-3-0 3.24.12-1 ii libharfbuzz0b2.6.2-1 ii libicu63 63.2-2 ii libjpeg62-turbo 1:1.5.2-2+b1 ii libjsoncpp1 1.7.4-3+b1 ii liblcms2-2 2.9-3+b1 ii libminizip1 1.1-8+b1 ii libnspr4 2:4.21-2 ii libnss3 2:3.45-1 ii libopenjp2-7 2.3.1-1 ii libopus0 1.3-1+b1 ii libpango-1.0-0 1.42.4-7 ii libpangocairo-1.0-0 1.42.4-7 ii libpci3 1:3.6.2-2 ii libpng16-16 1.6.37-1 ii libpulse013.0-2 ii libre2-5 20190901+dfsg-1 ii libsnappy1v5 1.1.7-1+b1 ii libstdc++6 9.2.1-8 ii libvpx6 1.8.1-dmo1 ii libwebp6 0.6.1-2+b1 ii libwebpdemux20.6.1-2+b1 ii libwebpmux3 0.6.1-2+b1 ii libx11-6 2:1.6.8-1 ii libx11-xcb1 2:1.6.8-1 ii libxcb1 1.13.1-2 ii libxcomposite1 1:0.4.4-2 ii libxcursor1 1:1.2.0-2 ii libxdamage1 1:1.1.5-1 ii libxext6 2:1.3.3-1+b2 ii libxfixes3 1:5.0.3-1 ii libxi6 2:1.7.9-1 ii libxml2 2.9.4+dfsg1-7+b3 ii libxrandr2 2:1.5.1-1 ii libxrender1 1:0.9.10-1 ii libxslt1.1 1.1.32-2.1 ii libxss1 1:1.2.3-1 ii libxtst6 2:1.2.3-1 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.11.dfsg-1+b1 Versions of packages chromium recommends: ii chromium-sandbox 76.0.3809.100-1 Versions of packages chromium suggests: pn chromium-driver pn chromium-l10n pn chromium-shell Versions of packages chromium-common depends on: ii x11-utils 7.7+4 ii xdg-utils 1.1.3-1 Versions of packages chromium-common recommends: ii chromium-sandbox 76.0.3809.100-1 ii dunst [notification-daemon] 1.4.1-1 ii fonts-liberation 1:1.07.4-10 ii libgl1-mesa-dri 19.2.1-1 pn libu2f-udev ii notification-daemon 3.20.0-4 pn
Bug#941060: chromium: When will the upgrade to v77 reach debian?
Package: chromium Version: 76.0.3809.100-1 Followup-For: Bug #941060 It has been a month since the release of chromium 77 and still nothing in the repos. Why such a big delay? Plus, on 2 weeks max, chromium 78 will be released from upstream, so don't bother building it. I will probably move to chrome when 78 comes out.

Bug#941060: chromium: When will the upgrade to v77 reach debian?
Package: chromium Version: 76.0.3809.100-1 Severity: minor Tags: upstream Chromium 77 was released 2 weeks ago (Sept 10th) and it has not reached the repos yet. Since then, it has also received a minor update, from 77.0..75 to 77.0..90. And in those 2 weeks, not even the source package was uploaded to the repo, let alone a compiled one! On top of that, you did not package the last update for v76 (76.0..132), while v76 was first packaged when it was in BETA! Why do you waste your time packaging betas? So please, stay in sync with chromium's releases, at least in the unstable branch. I would not mind staying a bit behind, if it was not for the sites that I visit that check the browser version and demand the latest one, e.g. my bank only allows current versions of all the browsers, else it pops up an "update your browser" message. Thank you. p.s. I would install the regular chrome, but I prefer chromium and the move from chromium to chrome is a hussle for me. -- System Information: Debian Release: bullseye/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 5.2.0-2-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE, TAINT_OOT_MODULE, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US:en (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages chromium depends on: ii chromium-common 76.0.3809.100-1 ii libasound2 1.1.8-1 ii libatk-bridge2.0-0 2.34.0-3 ii libatk1.0-0 2.34.0-1 ii libatomic1 9.2.1-8 ii libatspi2.0-02.34.0-1 ii libavcodec58 10:4.2.1-dmo2 ii libavformat5810:4.2.1-dmo2 ii libavutil56 10:4.2.1-dmo2 ii libc62.29-1 ii libcairo-gobject21.16.0-4 ii libcairo21.16.0-4 ii libcups2 2.3.0-3 ii libdbus-1-3 1.12.16-1 ii libdrm2 2.4.99-1 ii libevent-2.1-6 2.1.8-stable-4 ii libexpat12.2.7-2 ii libflac8 1.3.3-1 ii libfontconfig1 2.13.1-2+b1 ii libfreetype6 2.9.1-4 ii libgcc1 1:9.2.1-8 ii libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 2.38.1+dfsg-1 ii libglib2.0-0 2.60.6-2 ii libgtk-3-0 3.24.11-1 ii libharfbuzz0b2.6.1-3 ii libicu63 63.2-2 ii libjpeg62-turbo 1:1.5.2-2+b1 ii libjsoncpp1 1.7.4-3+b1 ii liblcms2-2 2.9-3+b1 ii libminizip1 1.1-8+b1 ii libnspr4 2:4.21-2 ii libnss3 2:3.45-1 ii libopenjp2-7 2.3.0-2 ii libopus0 1.3-1+b1 ii libpango-1.0-0 1.42.4-7 ii libpangocairo-1.0-0 1.42.4-7 ii libpci3 1:3.6.2-2 ii libpng16-16 1.6.37-1 ii libpulse013.0-1 ii libre2-5 20190901+dfsg-1 ii libsnappy1v5 1.1.7-1+b1 ii libstdc++6 9.2.1-8 ii libvpx6 1.8.1-dmo1 ii libwebp6 0.6.1-2+b1 ii libwebpdemux20.6.1-2+b1 ii libwebpmux3 0.6.1-2+b1 ii libx11-6 2:1.6.8-1 ii libx11-xcb1 2:1.6.8-1 ii libxcb1 1.13.1-2 ii libxcomposite1 1:0.4.4-2 ii libxcursor1 1:1.2.0-2 ii libxdamage1 1:1.1.5-1 ii libxext6 2:1.3.3-1+b2 ii libxfixes3 1:5.0.3-1 ii libxi6 2:1.7.9-1 ii libxml2 2.9.4+dfsg1-7+b3 ii libxrandr2 2:1.5.1-1 ii libxrender1 1:0.9.10-1 ii libxslt1.1 1.1.32-2.1 ii libxss1 1:1.2.3-1 ii libxtst6 2:1.2.3-1 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.11.dfsg-1+b1 Versions of packages chromium recommends: ii chromium-sandbox 76.0.3809.100-1 Versions of packages chromium suggests: pn chromium-driver pn chromium-l10n pn chromium-shell Versions of packages chromium-common depends on: ii x11-utils 7.7+4 ii xdg-utils 1.1.3-1 Versions of packages chromium-common recommends: ii chromium-sandbox 76.0.3809.100-1 ii dunst [notification-daemon] 1.4.1-1 ii fonts-liberation 1:1.07.4-10 ii libgl1-mesa-dri 19.1.6-1 pn libu2f-udev ii notification-daemon 3.20.0-4 pn system-config-printer pn upower Versions of packages chromium-sandbox depends on: ii libatomic1 9.2.1-8 ii libc6 2.29-1 ii libgcc1 1:9.2.1-8 ii libstdc++6 9.2.1-8 -- no debconf information
