Thought I'd have a go out of interest - Replacing my new config dir with the old one reproduces the bug, but -dbg seems to require a previous verison of chromium-browser (had the the same problem trying to install -dbg from synaptic): === $ echo "deb http://ddebs.ubuntu.com $(lsb_release -cs) main

@Gareth: glad to know that you managed to sort out the crash, although it is worrisome and we should get to the bottom of it. No tinkering with the config directory should ever be needed. @Giuseppe: if you can still reproduce the crash reliably, would you mind installing the debug symbols for chro

@Gareth Evans Your suggestion, and without copying back the old Bookmarks, works only the first time, when you close and reopen the browser it crashes again, with: Received signal 11 SEGV_MAPERR 0008 #0 0xb762af0a base::debug::StackTrace::StackTrace() #1 0xb762a83a base::debug::St
