Hi,

I've noticed that the ports www/linux-chrome and www/chromium share the same
description, basically only the port name changed.
It can be confusing, people might not realize which one is the proprietary
software.
I myself wasn't sure about what the port was about until I looked into the
makefile which led me to the google site:
https://cgit.freebsd.org/ports/tree/www/linux-chrome/Makefile#n5
https://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/rpm/stable/x86_64/

This is the current description:
Chrome is an open-source browser project that aims to build a safer,
faster, and more stable way for all users to experience the web.

The Chrome website contains design documents, architecture overviews,
testing information, and more to help you learn to build and work with
the Chrome source code.

Thank you.
