The policy directory should have been preserved, but it changed in
upstream without me noticing. It's fixed in the packaging branch in
response to bug#1373802 .  It will return to  /etc/chromium-
browser/policies  at next version.

** Changed in: apparmor (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Invalid

** Changed in: chromium-browser (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Fix Committed

Title:
  path for policy files changed

Status in “apparmor” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in “chromium-browser” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  Between package version: 37.0.2062.94-0ubuntu0.12.04.1~pkg909
  and package version: 37.0.2062.120-0ubuntu0.12.04.1~pkg917

  The path checked by Ubuntu's chromium-browser package for policy files
  has changed.  This results in administrator mandated settings not
  being applied, which should be considered a security vulnerability.

  In previous versions of the package, policy files were read from: /etc/chromium-browser/policies
  In the new version of the package, it is reading policy files from: /etc/chromium/policies

  The new package version has dropped the following line from its debian/rules file:
      sed -i 's,/etc/chromium/policies,/etc/chromium-browser/policies,' \
          $(DEB_TAR_SRCDIR)/chrome/common/chrome_paths.cc
