Bug Description

After logging in to plus.google.com in the browser with my @canonical.com account, I get an error message which says that my browser is not supported. Please see the attached screenshot.

This does not happen with my personal account, which works just fine.

This happens on rc-proposed.

Marking as duplicate of bug #1656310 as that other one (even though more recent) has more info.
Thanks for the original report, and sorry for not acting on it earlier…
