Re: package: version => "latest", looks not work after package new version released.

Hello Craig, 

In my test environment, Chrome is upgraded from 107.0.5304.110-1 to 
107.0.5304.121-1, but I didn't change service/main.cf. Let's waiting for 
next time new Chrome release and see if it works.

Thank you!
