Title:
/usr/bin/chromium-browser doesn't pass through user-agent flag
Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
Binary package hint: chromium-browser
I'm trying to test a website's mobile interface on my desktop.
1) The release of Ubuntu you are using, via 'lsb_release -rd' or System ->
About Ubuntu
Natty 11.04
2) The version of the package you are using, via 'apt-cache policy pkgname'
or by checking in Software Center
11.0.696.57~r82915-0ubuntu0.11.04.1
3) What you expected to happen
Launching chromium with `chromium-browser --user-agent="foobar"`, then
confirming the user-agent by typing "about:" in the address bar should show the
user agent to be "foobar"
4) What happened instead
The /usr/bin/chromium-browser script didn't pass on the user-agent flag to
/usr/lib/chromium-browser/chromium-browser, so when i went to check "about:",
it still showed up with the default chromium user agent.
