​Technically, we could assume that we have one available to work from,
since both Russian Fedora Remix and spot have made packages with all the
build spec information available for us to use for an official Chromium
package. If we want to bring Chromium into Fedora, we should obviously
start from those packages, as most of the hard work is basically done. So
from that perspective, we do "have a package ready".​
