ChromeOS Debian Packages

Linux on ChromeOS ships with a minimal Debian installation that has been modified thanks to the installation of several Debian packages. These packages are distributed via a standard Debian repository, which allows Google to update the packages via the apt package tool. This page provides a list of all the custom Debian packages and versions that are in use with ChromeOS.
