Package: chromium
Version: 26.0.1410.43-1
Severity: important

Hi Chromium maintainer,
After my latest apt-get update && apt-get install (which upgraded too many
packages to be sure what changes caused what effects), Chromium segvs on
startup.
Moving ~/.config/chromium out of the way results in no visible change.
Running with --debug or with --debug --single-process also results in a segv
(but this time in the debugger, of course).
This machine does not have enough disk space to install the debug symbols
(1701MB!!), so I'll supply backtraces but I know they're not very useful -
sorry about this.
In case it's relevant, I'm using XFCE.
If I manage to reproduce this behaviour on another machine with more disk, I'll
post better backtraces. However this is my only ia32 machine so I don't like my
chances.

Cheers!

chromium recommends no packages.

Versions of packages chromium suggests:
pn  chromium-l10n  <none>

-- no debconf information

Console output is as follows (I suspect that these dbus-related messages are
unrelated):
