[Pkg-chromium-maint] Bug#679848: chromium: everything related to chrome:// is broken

[Norbert Preining]

Package: chromium
Version: 20.0.1132.43~r143823-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Dear all,

I am having a bit an issue with chromium, as I cannot access any of the
configuration, sign-in, or import data pages. In short, everything that
starts with
	chromium://
is unresponsive, me getting the warning window "unresponsive ..."

Actually other pages also hang completely. It seems that they are
completely loaded, but the rotating thingy next to the title in the
tab is continuing to rotate forever.

I have removed all of 
	~/.config/chromium/
and restarted, without success.

I suppose it is related to some authentication problems, since I got on the
console messages like
	[7656:7674:5285710616:ERROR:cert_verify_proc_nss.cc(744)] CERT_PKIXVerifyCert for XXXX.XXXX.XXXXX failed err=-8181
both for www.google.com as well as othe web pages.

Thanks for any suggestion

Norbert
