Title:
  Chromium crashes when accessing Chrome Web Store

Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  What happened: If you try and access the Chrome Web Store
  (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/category/apps) either from the App
  Launcher, Apps menu or from the URL, after a few seconds the page
  crashes showing the "Aw Snap" page.

  What you expected to happen: The page should render correctly allowing
  users to install Chrome web apps.

  chromium-browser 38.0.2125.111-0ubuntu0.14.04.1.1061
  32 Bit
  i386
  Ubuntu Trusty 14.04.01 LTS

  This doesn't happen on the latest nightly developer build from here
  (https://download-chromium.appspot.com/) or if you download the
  official Google Chrome stable version. Uninstalling and reinstalling
  doesn't help, neither does deleting the Chromium profile.

  The only workaround is to either downgrade to 34.0.1847.116 via
  Synaptic or to use one of the versions linked above.

  Sorry if this is already submitted/known, but I couldn't see anything.

  This is however already submitted at the Chromium bug tracker but it has been closed pending an update from Ubuntu:
  https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=432488

  The last security update has created a severe regression. Can we get
  an update to 38.0.2125.122 or higher ASAP please?

  Regards
  RichJack
