I believe I have resolved the issue when there is no chrome profile for a user.*
Here's the final script:
I needed to create a "template" profile in the client image /opt/tcs/chrome/profile/chromium. I simply copied a fresh profile from one of my users.*
ln -sf /tmp/.config-chromium ~/.config/chromiumln -sf ~/.config/chromium.orig/Default /tmp/.config-chromium/Defaultchromium-browser
I assume my "template" profile will need to be updated when chrome gets updated but I am not sure.*

Hello,
The script below seems to work for users who already have a chrome profile, however, if there is no profile I get:
nick@ltsp87:/tmp$ run-chrome
mv: cannot stat `/home/nick/.config/chromium': No such file or directory
[3231:3231:958859199:FATAL:chrome/browser/browser_main.cc(592)] Check failed: profile. Cannot get default profile.
/usr/bin/run-chrome: line 7:* 3231 Aborted**************** chromium-browser --no-first-run %U
I get the same error* when running without --no-first-run

Hello,
An update on this:
I*implemented*Stéphane's workaround and it appears to be working. One caveat is that chrome shows the first run prompt each time, however, chrome has a --no-first-run flag: (i.e.*chromium-browser --no-first-run ) *which takes care of this problem.
Here is my script placed in /opt/ltsp/i386/opt/run-chrome.sh
#!/bin/bashmv ~/.config/chromium ~/.config/chromium.orig
Google Chrome as Local App?
