I made a clunky (and unsuccessful) attempt to update the ungoogled-chromium.tcz extension:
- Downloaded and unpacked latest ungoogled-chromium tar.xz (tar -xvf etc)
- Copied and unpacked ungoogled-chromium.tcz (unsquashfs etc)
- Replaced relevant files in unpacked tcz with files from tar (keeping the tcz structure)
- Re-packed tcz (mksquashfs etc), put new tcz in tce/optional, then rebooted
And...it didn't work from the icon. And when I tried "exec chromium-browser" from a terminal, the terminal window just vanished.
Hopefully I'm overlooking something simple. However in fairness to myself this method actually seemed to work with the palemoon.tcz extension, so maybe there are additional changes I need to make for the ungoogled-chromium.tcz extension.
Any suggestions? Thanks!

Hi, thane. I'm able to create a working extension like this:
cd ~/Downloads
wget https://github.com/ungoogled-software/ungoogled-chromium-portablelinux/releases/download/145.0.7632.159-1/ungoogled-chromium-145.0.7632.159-1-x86_64_linux.tar.xz
unxz ungoogled-chromium-145.0.7632.159-1-x86_64_linux.tar.xz
tar -xvf ungoogled-chromium-145.0.7632.159-1-x86_64_linux.tar
mkdir -p extension_root/usr/local/bin
mv ungoogled-chromium-145.0.7632.159-1-x86_64_linux ./extension_root/usr/local/bin/ungoogled-chromium-145.0
cd extension_root/usr/local/bin
ln -s ./ungoogled-chromium-145.0/chrome ungoogled-chromium
cd -
mksquashfs extension_root/ ungoogled-chromium.tcz
tce-load -i ./ungoogled-chromium.tcz
Then I can launch the browser by running ungoogled-chromium in a terminal.

I'll try that. Thanks!
