    > If they don't want to continue making auditable builds for this package then that's fine... You're mistaken if you think this is what is going on. The build is as auditable as any deb. Here's the source repository: https://code.launchpad.net/~chromium-team/chromium-browser/+git/snap-from-source/+ref/stable ...and here are the build logs: https://launchpad.net/~chromium-team/+snap/chromium-snap-from-source-stable I found these following links from the store listing: https://snapcraft.io/chromium Snaps are also used to ship proprietary software - just as proprietary debs also exist. You may not be able to find sources or build logs for those - for example if they are built externally and the binary snap builds uploaded to the store directly. So an individual snap maintainer has a choice on where to build a snap and whether to publish sources and build logs or not. But typically Free Software snaps are built on the same infrastructure as Ubuntu itself, and for these, the sources and build logs are available in an equivalent way.
