Hi Lars,

Updates into Raring for Chromium are currently blocked [1]. I'm not sure
why this bug that affects ARM is a blocker to the other archs, but I'm sure
there is a good reason which if Micah has chance he can explain. I'm still
not sure if such things for Raring should be addressed to Micah or Chad.

22.0.1229.94~r161065-0ubuntu1<https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/quantal/+source/chromium-browser/22.0.1229.94~r161065-0ubuntu1>was
the one that the -release team shipped the final build of 12.10 with.

I'll finish zsnc'ing up my Raring iso and check. Let me get L-13.04
installed and see what version I am given and happens when I try Alex's PPA
to update it.

Regards,

Phill.
