…ystem packages apt mirrors on the runner can be slow enough that installing Chromium's system packages took over six minutes. The image already has the browsers and their libraries. The latest Playwright entry has no matching image, so it keeps installing on the host.

Why
In a recent run,
playwright install --with-deps chromiumtook 6m14s. apt fetched 21.9 MB at 64 kB/s, and several font packages timed out on the Azure mirror before falling back to archive.ubuntu.com.What
check: runs inmcr.microsoft.com/playwright:v1.64.1-noble(pinned by digest, matching@playwright/testin package.json), and drops the install step.browser: the1.64.0entry runs inv1.64.0-noble. Thelatestentry has no matching image, so it sets no image, runs on the host, and keeps--with-deps.renovate.json: groups@playwright/testwithmcr.microsoft.com/playwright, so Renovate bumps the package and thecheckimage in one PR. The1.64.0image in thebrowsermatrix is the supported floor; Renovate does not read matrix values, so it stays put.
