I seriously fail to see how that can be related
So check using directly with what urpmi use as downloader on your box.
Can be wget,aria2,curl,rsync

This does sound very odd, and suspicious but if Chromium plays with global proxy settings or /etc/resolv.conf or something, it could theoretically be involved.
