This applies to 644 for me. Going back to 642 solves it:
$ sudo dpkg -i /var/cache/apt/archives/chromium-*.642.*

I ran into the same problem on Ubuntu Desktop 64 bit running the nightly
ppa. After doing the update, chrome would no longer start giving the same
error. I followed the steps by the second comment in this thread and by
reverting to the old version it works again. (The update was just applied
now so its the newest nightly in the ppa)

exactly same issue here since my update 30 minutes ago.
Btw. Ubuntu 10.10 (Maverick) here.
Reverting back to 642 worked for me too.

Marco,
sorry, but it doesn't help (it was the first thing that I tried).
I have installed both google-chrome-unstable and chromium.
google-chrome-unstable is an older release compared to chromium: in this
case it's 642 and it works.
I think it's a good idea to have bot versions installed.
As far for the extensions, you should synchronize your gmail account, and
you'll get all your extensions, app and bookmarks back.
cheers

previous packages are available from
https://launchpad.net/~chromium-daily/+archive/ppa/+packages?field.status_filter=superseded
reinstalling r71583 solved issues for me while r71618 (which is still 642)
did not!

temporary workaround for the Ubuntu PPA users:
$ sudo mkdir /usr/lib/chromium-browser/extensions
$ echo '{}' | sudo tee -a
/usr/lib/chromium-browser/extensions/external_extensions.json
or a root:
# mkdir /usr/lib/chromium-browser/extensions
# echo '{}' > /usr/lib/chromium-browser/extensions/external_extensions.json

Sam, can you look into this?
The check failure reproduces on Chromium OS as well. Chrome crashes right
after login.
