You seem rather confused - along with a lot of other people!

It is *all* Google code, Google engineers designed it, programmed it
and built it.

"Chrome" is the finished browser for Windows; "Chromium" is the
underlying code which is also being developed on Linux and Mac OS X.

An official release is only available on Windows (v1 final, v2 is in
beta) but the pre-alpha code for Linux now builds into something that
does work to a limited extent. That is what I am trying to install.

Yes, Codeweavers have a version of the Windows build compiled with
WINE, but why bother when there is a native version?
