BTW, AFAIK the whole patent issue turned out moot, and parties (like Debian) ignoring it were proven right.
Anyway, one can use chromium via EasyDebian - not the newest one, but still far better than outdated thing from repos. Unless someone update it, I would suggest avoiding repo one - not due to "All American(tm)" software patent nonsense, but due to common sense feasibility.

i thought chromium on easy debian would be same.
chromium 5 is running better than iceweasel. not as good as microB but usable. problem is I couldn't find any way to install extensions yet.
will try chromium on easy debian.

Sorry to get drawn into this like that. It would otherwise be a non-issue for me as I would not touch anything that Goggle has touched so one missing Chrome or three, who cares? But stupid reactions like this really ruffle my feathers.

We don't know what was in that particular version of chromium. So we cannot even speculate
If you're sure to win then of course you do what you want.
