Release Date for v54?

Asked by David Sanders

Is there an ETA on a release of version 54 for Yakkety? The last release of chromium-browser for Yakkety was on 10-08-2016 so it's been over a month now. There are some important bug fixes in 54 that I'd like to have access to but I'm not sure how soon it will be available through this package. Thanks.

As far as I can see, the recent attempts to build chromium 54.* have failed for most architectures, see https://launchpad.net/~canonical-chromium-builds/+archive/ubuntu/stage/+packages

Thanks for the quick reply. I was able to use that link (thanks) to download the amd64 DEB which did successfully build. Unfortunately it did not fix the bug I was hoping it would, but that's an issue with Chromium, not Ubuntu.
