chromium-browser (104.0.5112.79-2) unstable; urgency=low We've switched the default search engine from Google to DuckDuckGo. To manually override it, just go into Settings, click "Search Engine", and next to "Search engine used in the address bar", select a different search engine from the pull-down. Also, catching up on a few upstream changes: TLSv1 and TLSv1.1 support have been completely dropped from chromium (as described in https://chromestatus.com/feature/5759116003770368). Support for CPUs that lack SSE3 extensions has also been dropped (as described on https://www.tomshardware.com/news/chrome-stops-working-on-old-processors). Most users shouldn't notice, unless you're using older hardware or "securely" communicating with older hardware. Lastly, Chromium 101 changed a setting for host-based authentication. This broke some folks' Kerberos, among other things. "AuthServerWhitelist" was renamed to "AuthServerAllowlist", as described in https://bugs.debian.org/1013268 -- Andres Salomon Tue, 16 Aug 2022 17:29:29 -0400 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
