Easy repro: 1. Set user's CHROMIUM_FLAGS with an argument containing spaces, eg: $ echo 'CHROMIUM_FLAGS=--user-agent="A B C"' > .chromium-browser.init 2. Run chromium: $ /usr/bin/chromium-browser 3. See 2 extra open tabs, one trying to open URL 'B', the other 'C'. The cause for this funny behavior is the lack of quotes around $CHROMIUM_FLAGS in the script installed in /usr/bin/chromium-browser -- it calls $LIBDIR/$APPNAME $CHROMIUM_FLAGS "$@" by the end of the script. I've tried working around it but couldn't, no amount of escaping and extra quotes seems to help if it's called like that.
