But the apport hook in the transitional deb package wasn't updated accordingly. [Impact] Bugs filed with `ubuntu-bug chromium-browser` have incomplete data attached. See e.g. the attachements to bug #1899356. There's a file called HookError_chromium_browser.txt with a python traceback because the profile directory wasn't found in the expected location. [Test Case] In focal, apt install chromium-browser, then run chromium at least once to ensure there is a profile directory (under $HOME/snap/chromium/common/chromium), then run `ubuntu-bug chromium- browser`. Observe that there isn't a FileNotFoundError traceback in the terminal for an unknown profile directory, and that the apport dialog with a summary of the information to be posted doesn't contain a "HookError_chromium_browser" entry. [Regression Potential] This affects only the apport hook for chromium-browser, the application itself shouldn't be affected. The hook should be verified to continue working by running the `ubuntu-bug chromium-browser` command and carefully inspecting the information that would be sent to launchpad.
