Package: chromium
Version: 43.0.2357.65-1~deb8u1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,
I was trying to upgrade to chromium stretch and this is what happened :-

[$] sudo aptitude install chromium=43.0.2357.65-1

I had a look at the various packages :-

[$] apt-cache policy chromium

While I do submit that possibly there might be virtually no differences between the two chromium versions, as far as chromium-inspector is concerned the absence of the same in the new version is not explained in the changelog https://tracker.debian.org/news/685937

Look forward to know more.
