Had to also do sudo apt-get install libxi6 libgconf-2-4

I did not have to install libxi6 nor libgconf-2-4 (though maybe they were installed already).

Also, if you happen to be doing this with rails, I was able to configure Selenium::WebDriver::Chrome.driver_path = "/usr/lib/chromium-browser/chromedriver" rather than do the symlinking.
