Doc Text:
Due to SELinux preventing /opt/google/chrome-beta/chrome from using the setcap access on a process, the Google Chrome process previously terminated unexpectedly and the sandbox initialization failed. This update adds the chrome_sandbox_t SELinux policy, and Google Chrome no longer crashes in the described scenario.
