Thanks! I've been running Chrome, which doesn't have the snap snafu, since
this first happened and will probably stick with them, but it's great to
know the problem can be licked. Thanks again ~ Steve Revier.

Title:
  "Aw Snap!" crash on Google Chrome Webstore

Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Chromium is crashing when I visit https://www.google.com/chrome/webstore/
  It seems it has been fixed in the stable version of chrome https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=432488

  The current version 38.0.2125.111 in  14.04 LTS repositories has this problem. 
  Since all the extensions and apps become unusable due to this, I was wondering if an updated version could be added to the 14.04 LTS repositories.
