Bug#939406: ITP: ungoogled-chromium -- Web browser that aims to build a safer, faster, and more stable internet browsing experience
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
* Package name : ungoogled-chromium
Version : 84.0.4147.105-1.1
* License : BSD-3-Clause
Programming Lang: Python
Description : A lightweight approach to removing Google web service dependency
I intend to maintain the package that Piccoro has pointed out here as I use this browser on a daily basis and I believe that it is a better alternative to chromium. Chromium itself is still very dependent on Google web services to operate making this very difficult for those who want to use Chromium without the Google aspect to it.
The package currently has a ungoogled-chromium-debian Github link where the original developer has included build files for ungoogled-chromium. I also intend on contacting & assisting the developer in packaging the files for Debian and uploading them to the official Debian archive.The ungoogled-chromium-debian branch contains packages for Debian sid and stable but is sometimes not as up-to-date as the original upstream source.
So far, I plan on maintaining the package on my own but if I do need help I hope that I can reach out to the Debian Chromium Team. I require a sponsor - I have found a developer willing to sponsor the uploads.
