You're aware that this version of chromium is outdated by few eons, right? BTW, much more recent version ( from squeeze) works on Maemo via Easy Debian.
Also, chromium is FOSS - why you shouldn't be able to publish debs?...

By the way Estel do you have a link to your recent and up to date image for ED? With chromium already installed
?

The version from ED thread (or qole repos) of my squeeze image should be OK.

As for your "more recent" needs - try QML browser, it's faster, and uses latest webkit.

fyi:
Raspbian (armhf) has Chromium 22 in their Repos:
http://archive.raspbian.org/raspbian...omium-browser/
It may work in Easy Debian (Wheezy). But I have not tested it. In case you want to try, here are the Raspbian repos:
http://www.raspbian.org/RaspbianRepository
Edit:
Don't bother, it won't work.
1st:
You'd need to install those packages manually since Debian Wheezy contains a newer chromium version which is why apt will try to pull the *_all.deb packages from Debian. These of course are incompatible with the older Raspbian packages.
But that's manageable.
2nd:
If you successfully installed chromium it won't start due to this error message:
A google search makes me believe we're tricked by our ancient kernel again, because among the few hits the even fewer hits with any clues point to outdated kernel versions.
@Nokia: Thanks again for all the blobs that leave us stuck with 2.6.28!
3rd:
There's a workaround: Start chromium as root.
Yes! Yuck! No! Don't!
