Chromium can't sign-in

Reported by evilblad...@gmail.com, Feb 22 2018

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Ubuntu Chromium/49.0.2623.108 Chrome/49.0.2623.108 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Click on an button with a man silhouette in an upper-right corner.
2. Click "Sign in to Chromium" button.
3. Enter Google account's e-mail and password.

What is the expected behavior?
Chromium should sign in to my Google account and sync with it.

What went wrong?
I get a message "Uh-oh! Service unavailable. Try again later."

If I run Chromium from console I also get this in it:
xdg-settings: invalid operation
Try 'xdg-settings --help' for more information.

Did this work before? N/A 

Chrome version: 49.0.2623.108  Channel: n/a
OS Version: Ubuntu 16.04
Flash Version:

OK. Self-update. I think this is due to the version of Chromium is rather old. I noticed that Google's pages like Gmail tell me that I use an old and unsupported version of Chrome.
But I just did sudo apt-get update and then sudo apt-get install chromium-browser, so why isn't it an up-to-date version? And more important - what should I do to get a new one?
Sorry, people. Turned out I had updates disable in my settings.
Everything works fine with a new version :)
