To understand the work this has created for Debian users and
maintainers, you may want to review this bug report which has ultimately
been traced to bundled library issues:

https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=501318

If the Fedora community is willing to put the time into helping Chromium
developers merge their patches into upstream projects and avoid bundled
libraries that would help spread the workload that the Debian/Ubuntu
people are currently stuck with.
