Yes, although it's presence there is based on a report from 2009 that upstream has said (on more than one occasion as I recall) has been addressed. And so, that recommended fix may indeed not be applicable anymore. There is some evidence that suggests it's outdated (i.e., Debian has added Chromium into Main without the -dfsg string in the package version number which suggests that they didn't need to make any changes to Chromium to fit with their criteria. While the DFSG and the FSF's own criteria are not identical this is nevertheless a good sign.) So I'd not hold distros to removing a package that is possibly based on outdated information, at least until someone can review it and make a determination. I've mentioned before that this whole thing that we're doing isn't supposed to be some blind, automated, rote process.
