Package: chromium-browser
Version: 6.0.472.63~r59945-5+squeeze6
Severity: normal
Chromium browser seems to "helpfully" append extensions to the
file names of certain file types it thinks it recognizes.
For example, if I try to download the file,
http://python.org/ftp/python/2.7.3/Python-2.7.3.tar.xz
I end up with a file called 'Python-2.7.3.tar.xz.tar'.
Personally, I do not want the browser to ever rename any file
automatically, but at the very least there should be a
documented way to disable this behavior, since I've had to
unrename files often enough for me to have submitted this
bug report.
