Another option is setting the Google API Keys in the environment [1]. So, it should be enough to create a file at /etc/chromium.d that exports the keys. (/usr/bin/chromium sources all files on that dir)
This works for me: $ cat /etc/chromium.d/googleapikeys export GOOGLE_API_KEY="AIzaSyCkfPOPZXDKNn8hhgu3JrA62wIgC93d44k" export GOOGLE_DEFAULT_CLIENT_ID="811574891467.apps.googleusercontent.com" export GOOGLE_DEFAULT_CLIENT_SECRET="kdloedMFGdGla2P1zacGjAQh" (BTW: This keys are the Debian Google API keys that used to be included in older Chromium packaging debian/rules) [1] http://www.chromium.org/developers/how-tos/api-keys
