Hi,
Just for the record. The script in

https://raw.github.com/hughesjr/chromium_el_builder/master/chrome_libpdf_copy.sh

downloads the latest stable of google-chrome which is 
28.0.1500.52-207119 atm.
The libpdf.so which is included is not working (at least on i386).

# ldd libpdf.so
./libpdf.so: /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.15' not found 
(required by ./libpdf.so)

When you try to open pdf file you get "Could not load Chrome PDF Viewer"

The libpdf.so version from the following works:
google-chrome-stable-27.0.1453.110-202711.i386

I've managed to download it from 
http://orion.lcg.ufrj.br/RPMS/myrpms/google/

regards,

Giannis
