Unluckily, this isn't true for everybody.  If you look at
 https://packages.debian.org/sid/chromium or
 http://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/c/chromium-browser/
you'll see that 34.0.1847.116-2 is only available for amd64.  On the
i386 architecture, that version failed to build:
 https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=chromium-browser
so the latest available version of chromium is the misbegotten
34.0.1847.116-1~deb7u1.

So maybe this bug needs to be marked as "still found on i386", though
I don't see any mechanism for doing that.  Meanwhile I see Dan
Jacobson's just opened a duplicate of this bug as #746330...
