Hi, [X-Debbugs-CC to security team alias and chromium maintainers] Chromium with his recurring stream of security issues is currently as well for bookworm/unstable with around 47 open CVEs. For stable/oldstable it's even more since there hasn't been an update for half a year. Within the security team we are considering to announce the end of security support for chromium for buster and bullseye. People can e.g. transition to using Chromium from Flathub. Right now for unstable it's unclear if it should be asked to be removed as well, but that seems a quite drastic. To keep the way potentially open for bookworm we would like to ask instead to for now remove chromium from testing and having a block hint to avoid re-entering testing. Removing chromium from testing though has the implication that it qunit-selenium needs to be removed as well, so please remove this one along (pkg-ruby-extras-maintainers as well CC'ed). Regards, Salvatore
