The 20.04 LTS chromium-browser deb package exists only to install the chromium snap and deliver a few files to the filesystem outside the snap packaging system:
$ apt-file show chromium-browser chromium-browser: /usr/bin/chromium-browser chromium-browser: /usr/share/applications/chromium-browser.desktop chromium-browser: /usr/share/apport/package-hooks/chromium-browser.py chromium-browser: /usr/share/doc/chromium-browser/changelog.Debian.gz chromium-browser: /usr/share/doc/chromium-browser/copyright chromium-browser: /usr/share/icons/hicolor/128x128/apps/chromium-browser.png chromium-browser: /usr/share/icons/hicolor/22x22/apps/chromium-browser.png chromium-browser: /usr/share/icons/hicolor/24x24/apps/chromium-browser.png chromium-browser: /usr/share/icons/hicolor/256x256/apps/chromium-browser.png chromium-browser: /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps/chromium-browser.png chromium-browser: /usr/share/icons/hicolor/64x64/apps/chromium-browser.png chromium-browser: /usr/share/lintian/overrides/chromium-browser chromium-browser: /usr/share/pixmaps/chromium-browser.png $ The deb package doesn't need to be updated for snapd to automatically install a chromium update when one is made available. Check snap info chromium on your system to see if you've received the update yet.
