Bug Description

Binary package hint: chromium-browser

There's an upstream stable upgrade fixing some regressions (6.0.472.53~r57914 -> 6.0.472.55~r58392)
We need it in both Maverick and Lucid (-security + -updates).

At the same time, the last codecs package regressed on ARM (ftbfs), i have a fix with for this in a new version
(0.6+svn20100811r55740+56137 -> 0.6+svn20100904r58574+58998). It's also needed on both Maverick and Lucid.

Also, upstream upgraded the codecs deps on libvpx to the newly released 0.9.2, which is in debian but not in ubuntu (we have 0.9.1).
It's not absolutely necessary but it brings a lot of improvements, speed wise, which is good for WebM videos, such as on YouTube. IMHO, it's nice to have, but it may be too late, please advise.

chromium-codecs-ffmpeg is now in lucid-proposed. Marking chromium-browser back to Triaged since we won't push that to lucid-proposed until .53 is SRUd (bug #628924).

Uploaded to ubuntu-security-proposed PPA. Please note this build enables PIE, which is good for security but may require more testing.
