We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to review all
reported bugs in a timely manner.
I've seen no evidence that the (Google) Hangouts extension is being
installed in any recent release of the Chromium browser.
Presumably this bug report can now be closed as the issue was resolved
some time ago?

Title:
hangout extension is installed
Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
I'm surprising that the Hangout extension is installed in the Chromium
release, even it does not appear in the plugin list or in the
extension list.
This allow Hangout to enable features like entire screen sharing where
others webapps cannot (without installing their own extension). For
example, start a video call in Hangout (web) and click on the 3-dots
menu, then share screen.
It seems the activation started here :
https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=416856
And there is actualy no-way to disable it (without re-compiling).
Is it intentional or somebody misses this update ?
chromium-browser 48.0.2564.116-0ubuntu0.14.04.1.1111
On Ubuntu 14.04s
