chromium-browser crashed with SIGSEGV in gethostbyname2_r()

[Neal Gamradt]

Last night I put the laptop into hibernation/sleep by closing the lid of the laptop. This morning when I woke up, I opened up the laptop and took it out of hibernation/sleep by tapping the power button. Chromium wasn't open, when I went to open Chromium, it crashed with the following error:

chromium-browser crashed with SIGSEGV in gethostbyname2_r()

I am running on an HP EliteBook 8440p. Please let me know if you need more detail. Thanks.
