** Description changed:
For Ubuntu >= Focal the transitional debs are frozen at the version
number 1:85...
This might make one think[1][2] that it will install a critically
outdated Chromium while it does not, because it installs the snap.
+ [Test plan]
+
+ Install the package and confirm the version change with e.g.
+
+ dpkg -l | grep '^ii *chromium-browser *2:1snap1-0ubuntu1'
+
+ [Regression potential]
+
+ If the version were incorrectly constructed the deb build could fail.
