Are you sure these paths are right? They seem awfully short. Something like
/skin/pinball/communicator/ would seem more appropriate. I could be wrong, but
it would explain why update-mozilla-chrome won't update the rdf.

I wouldn't do that: it pre-selects the theme for all users and may break
other gecko-based browsers. Have a look at mozilla-locale-de-at's bug

Is is just not installed by default, or is it not even listed in the
themes selection box?

Update-mozilla-chrome should do this, given a good 99pinball.
