bash is Essential.  It'll be installed regardless, though it's true that
it's a bug that chromium declares the dependency in the first place.

Title:
  hardcoded bash dependency

Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  chromium has hardcoded dependency on bash (>= 4) which is very strange
  - I expect browser to work regardless of which shell is installed in
  my system. The dependency should be changed to dash and all the
  bashisms in source code (if any) should be eliminated to improve
  portability.
