Title:
  Regression: chromium-browser no longer loads policies in
  37.0.2062.120-0ubuntu0.14.04.1~pkg1049

Status in “chromium-browser” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Release: Ubuntu 14.04
  Package: chromium-browser_37.0.2062.120-0ubuntu0.14.04.1~pkg1049

  After updating to the latest version indicated above this morning I
  found out that this version no longer loads my configured policies
  from /etc/chromium-browser/policies/*.

  Running 'strings /usr/lib/chromium-browser/chromium-browser|grep
  policies' I noticed that in the new version the path vor policies
  changed to /etc/chromium/policies.

  After creating a symlink /etc/chromium -> chromium-browser and
  restarting the browser my policies were loaded again.

  I think this is a serious regression from the previous version
  (37.0.2062.94-0ubuntu0.14.04.1~pkg1042) for enterprise users where we
  want to lock down certain features in the browser and after this
  security update suddenly all policies are not loaded/enforced anymore.
