[Bug 1464958] Re: chromium-browser does not run in guest account

 

This is still a problem. I'm having the exact same issue (though on
google-chrome-stable-44.0.2403.125-1 )

Adding

  /opt/google/chrome/chrome Cx -> chromium,
  /opt/google/chrome/chrome-sandbox Cx -> chromium,

to /etc/apparmor.d/abstractions/lightdm_chromium-browser did not help (I
tried that in case it was a matter of yet more filename changes on
google's packaging).

google-chrome --no-sandbox works around the issue, with obvious
usability (manual startup or manual configuration of switch), stability
and security drawbacks.
