The change only bumps google-chrome-beta from 156.0.8078.12 to 157.0.8103.6 in .SRCINFO and updates the corresponding Google-hosted .deb URLs and SHA-512 checksums. The source remains HTTPS on the official dl.google.com domain, and there are no new build-time commands, install-script changes, or packaging behavior changes in this diff. No security red flags are introduced by this metadata-only version update.

Comment

The change is a routine version bump in .SRCINFO for the prebuilt Google Chrome Beta .deb sources, with updated HTTPS download URLs and matching SHA-512 checksums. No new build-time code, scripts, or packaging logic is introduced, and the sources remain pinned to specific release artifacts from the official Google domain. I do not see any added integrity or persistence risk in this diff alone.

Comment

The only change in the reviewed hunk is a pkgver bump from 156.0.8078.12 to 157.0.8103.6. No build logic, source URLs, checksums, install scripts, permissions, or packaging behavior changed in the provided diff. On its face this is a routine version update with no security-relevant red flags in the hunk itself.

Comment

This change only bumps google-chrome-beta to a newer upstream version and updates the corresponding SHA-512 checksums for the architecture-specific .deb sources. The download URLs remain HTTPS on dl.google.com, there are no new build-time network fetches, scripts, patches, privilege changes, or packaging logic changes. Security impact is limited to trusting the new upstream release, which is expected for a version update in this package.
