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

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)
