Will Ubuntu 22.04 image update it's chrome browser to version 109 anytime soon?

Currently the Ubuntu 22.04 image uses the chrome browser version 108.0.5359.124.

We've recently updated our npm package to use "chromedriver": "^109.0.0" and now our tests are failing with the following error:

Test Suites: 1 skipped, 0 of 1 total

This usually means that there are asynchronous operations that weren't stopped in your tests. Consider running Jest with `--detectOpenHandles` to troubleshoot this issue.

Will Ubuntu image 22.04 update it's chrome browser to version 109 anytime soon?

Thanks!

P.S. A quick fix for anyone encountering the same problem: I run the following script in the running instance of the image. It simply downloads the chrome browser and installs it, replacing the default chrome version 108 with the newly installed version 109

wget -q -O /tmp/chrome.deb http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/pool/main/g/google-chrome-stable/google-chrome-stable_109.0.5414.74-1_amd64.deb \
  && sudo apt install -y /tmp/chrome.deb \
  && rm /tmp/chrome.deb
