[Bug 1298021] Re: Google Chrome (not chromium) won't start in guest session

 

Ah! It appears that Google have changed their packaging subtly, which
has made the original patch ineffective.

Among other things, the original patch added the following lines to
"/etc/apparmor.d/abstractions/lightdm_chromium-browser":

  /opt/google/chrome-stable/google-chrome-stable Cx -> chromium,
  /opt/google/chrome-beta/google-chrome-beta Cx -> chromium,
  /opt/google/chrome-unstable/google-chrome-unstable Cx -> chromium,

At least in the version of chrome I have installed (google-chrome-stable
36.0.1985.143-1, from the repository at
http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/), the binary is installed to
"/opt/google/chrome/google-chrome". Adding the following additional line
caused the browser to work in guest mode for me:

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