Bug Description

I'm working on a RPI 3B with Raspbian 10 (fully patched). I have a program that files FCC and FTC complaints when robocallers and other miscreants abuse my landline. The program uses Python, Selenium, Chrome and Chromedriver. The program visits the FCC and FTC's websites, fills in the complaint form, and then submits the complaint.

Attempting to install the developer packages needed for the program results in:

    Note, selecting 'chromium-browser' instead of 'chromium'
    Package chromedriver is not available, but is referred to by another package.
    This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
    is only available from another source

    E: Package 'chromedriver' has no installation candidate

That is bad for me. I don't know any other way to automatically fill in web forms. It is also bad for folks who perform testing using Chrome. Obviously they cannot perform testing.

Please provide Chromedriver.

You can run the following command:
  sudo apt-get install -y chromium-browser chromium-chromedriver

After installation the chromedriver would be located at /usr/bin/chromedriver

See if that works for you
