Package: chromium-browser
Version: 6.0.472.63~r59945-2
Severity: important
Tags: upstream fixed-upstream
Forwarded: http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=44606
Chromium fails to start if AFS is used for the home directory:
$ LC_ALL=C chromium-browser
[24629:24629:4653558837445:ERROR:chrome/browser/process_singleton_linux.cc(855)] Failed to bind() /afs/mathi.uni-heidelberg.de/home/ansgar/.config/chromium/SingletonSocket: Operation not permitted
[24629:24629:4653558838197:ERROR:chrome/browser/browser_main.cc(979)] Failed to create a ProcessSingleton for your profile directory. This means that running multiple instances would start multiple browser processes rather than opening a new window in the existing process. Aborting now to avoid profile corruption.
This has already been fixed upstream in the 7.0.517.24 release [1], the
patch is available in [2].
According to the upstream bug, LTSP installations might also be
affected.
Regards,
Ansgar
