export CHROMIUM_DATA="/usr/share/chromium/data" should be set in the script that
runs Chromium.

Looking at the ebuild:pkg_postinst() {
	echo "
	To run Chromium B.S.U., cd to /usr/bin and run chromium-setup
	for the QT-based graphical interface. Or, run chromium directly
	with the appropriate command line options.

	NOTE: your cwd _must_ be /usr/bin, or chromium-setup won't be
	able to find the chromium executable! (Bad design :-( )"
}


I dont have a chromium-setup. Maybe because my $USE contains "-KDE -arts (...)"
