<p><a href="https://www.chromium.org/Home/">Chromium</a>, the open-source
upstream project for Google's Chrome web browser, is the browser of choice for

package and build</a>: Chromium has a complex build system, the project bundles
many of its dependencies, and it has frequent releases. All of that, plus user
complaints, has led the maintainers of the <a

package</a> to give up on trying to maintain the package.</p>
