Hello,

That variable seems gone [1].

Is that controlled by CHROME_DEVEL_SANDBOX environment variable now?

Looks like it no longer hardcodes an absolute path for the sandbox binary (which is what was specified in linux_sandbox_path) and just assumes it's next to the executable in the same directory, now: https://cs.chromium.org/chromium/src/sandbox/linux/suid/client/setuid_sandbox_host.cc?rcl=ab6a896a5431f19e96cbc15ce7920730ac4ace51&l=120
CHROME_DEVEL_SANDBOX still works for development purposes.
