Some Debian packages depend on gnome-www-browser, and chromium- browser should be marked as providing it (similarly, it should provide x-www-browser). For instance, cinnamon-desktop-environment depends on gnome-www- browser and it doesn't have the chromium-browser name in the alternates (it has Debian's chromium name instead). [Test case] The output of `apt-cache showpkg gnome-www-browser` after the "Reverse Provides:" line should contain a chromium-browser entry. Similarly for `apt-cache showpkg x-www-browser`. [Regression potential] This is adding a couple of "provides" entries to the control file. Regressions could happen if other packages depending on or recommending gnome-www-browser (or x-www-browser) were implicitly relying on the fact that chromium-browser wasn't a candidate, but that sounds unlikely, and in any case something that should be fixed in thoses packages.
