I wound up using proprietary Google Chrome on Debian for this reason. I use Qubes OS so using different OSs for different tasks is trivial. The only distribution I know of that seems to promptly ship updates to Chromium is Arch, which does not insist on only shipping free software. Could the difference be that Arch and RPMFusion can directly use the tarball provided by upstream, whereas Fedora and Debian cannot?
