per http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/chromium , this package is
transitional, and will likely stop pointing to -bsu in the future. (imo
it should stop existing completely, but i suspect it will end up with
-browser)

Title:
  Package name conflicts with chromium-browser

Status in “chromium” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: chromium

  The package name "chromium" for "chromium-bsu" is assigned
  inappropriately and is confusing when taken into account the growing
  web browser chromium with the package name "chromium-browser" . Its
  nice that chrmoium-browser is the name given to the browser because of
  an already existing package called "chromium" but the name "chromium"
  to a shooting game will trick users to install it
