chromium-browser (70.0.3538.54-2) unstable; urgency=medium The master_preferences files has been moved from /usr/share/chromium to /etc/chromium to support system level configuration of default options. -- Michael Gilbert Sun, 14 Oct 2018 23:34:04 +0000 chromium-browser (69.0.3497.100-1) unstable; urgency=medium All local extensions that are installed to /usr/share/chromium/extensions will now be loaded and enabled automatically. Some extension packages used to do this manually with a file in /etc/chromium.d. This conflicts with the new approach, so those packages need to be updated to account for this. External extensions were enabled by default in an upload prior to the release of stretch and will remain this way for the buster release. A future upload following the release of buster will disable this. -- Michael Gilbert Sat, 13 Oct 2018 03:22:43 +0000 chromium-browser (55.0.2883.75-4) unstable; urgency=medium External extensions are now disabled by default. Chromium will only load extensions that are explicitly specified with the --load-extension command line option passed into CHROMIUM_FLAGS. See the chromium-lwn4chrome package for an example of how to do this. You can also use the --enable-remote-extensions command line argument to chromium, which will bypass this restriction. -- Michael Gilbert Mon, 02 Jan 2017 02:42:29 +0000
