Hi David,<br>
<br>
Bad said, Ubuntu is a fork of Debian, it gets forked once in a while<br>
after a release to update packages, see wikipedia.<br>
<br>
Anyway I think chromium is still the most recent, from when 12.04 was<br>
released, so may somebody will just need to pick it up for 12.10 I<br>
guess<br>
