I have installed it on my test laptop and just found out Chromium is there.
I have tried to test it on my VM and same, it was about to install Chromium
too.

Is there anyway to stop that? I mean users may not like that (to have
Chromium) OR shall we keep it as it is but mention in the release notes
that Chromium will be installed?

I don't know but I find it really odd to install Chromium Browser with that
package.

Thanks!
