Note: This doesn't happen on Windows.

Since this is Linux only, assigning to evanm.

Do we even have a 64 bit version of our plugin?  I haven't been following...

This is a regression when we moved to Pepper v2. The PDF plugin does not load in the sandbox on Linux. Adding Viet-Trung because he said he is looking into this.

Here's a patch which should fix the problem:

It's not especially nice though. Suggestions on how to make it better welcome.

looks like this should be merged with  issue 49800 
Comment 16 by swcodfat...@gmail.com, Jul 24, 2010
Can you please merge   Issue 49637  as they are the same issue.
Comment 17 by evan@chromium.org, Jul 25, 2010

Comment 18 by aoca...@chromium.org, Jul 27, 2010
still broken in dev build 6.472.0 
Comment 20 by stuartmorgan@chromium.org, Jul 27, 2010
The Mac version of this bug is 49800; this is specifically tracking the Linux version.

Committed r53977. Hopefully, it should fix it (there's the possibility of an additional problem, similar to on Mac), so I'll have to check that.
Comment 25 by earthso...@gmail.com, Jul 28, 2010
can someone change the title to reflect that 32-bit is affected, too?

The following revision refers to this bug:

Linux: bit hacky way to ensure Pepper plugins get loaded by zygote.

BUG=49702
TEST=Integrated PDF plugin should work on Linux Chrome, and --register-pepper-plugins works on Linux even with sandbox enabled.

Gene put in the final thing required to actually fix this....
Status: Fixed

Comment 37 by evan@chromium.org, Aug 11, 2010
Do we need to cherry-pick this?
Comment 38 by viettrun...@chromium.org, Aug 11, 2010
I think that things should be fine (i.e., gene merged the changes which fixed the PDF plugin on Linux). (Chromium built off 472 would probably be a bit broken, but Chrome should be fine.)

If you (evan) merged the change which broke it, then we need to merge gene's fix to your patch.

If others are building and shipping Chromium off 472, then we should probably merge these two patches.
