Not wishing to pull up a bug team member, but the version of Chromium at the time of my writing this is actually Version 28.0.1500.52 Ubuntu 13.10 (28.0.1500.52-0ubuntu3)
That comes from the official repos. Those using various ppa's.... Get them purged. Here's a short, but not total list https://launchpad.net/~chromium-daily/+archive/ppa and here's the active one.... https://launchpad.net/~chromium-daily/+archive/stable Regards, Phill. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to chromium-browser in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1052849 Title: Chrominum out of date and has various issues not seen in Chrome Status in “chromium-browser” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: The version of Chrominum is 18.0.1025.168 - but if I download the latest Chrome from Google it has a version of 21.0.1180.89. Chromimum will not play MP4 (even with non-free stuff installed). Chrome does. Chrominum keeps popping up an unwanted request for a password to my Gnome keyring - which I don't use and I have not asked Chrominum to save passwords. From reading on discussions on the net I understand this has been fixed in Chrome (but have not tried it long enough to tell).
