Re: Google Chrome Stable

AS for Iceweasel 4.0beta, you should set up some sort of experimental #! repo for stuff you are considering for the release so people can provide feedback on whether it is good for them.

There's already a statler-dev repo that packages are tested in before moving to the main repo.

Re: Google Chrome Stable

Bump! Sorry, but I didn't want to start a new topic about Chrome. Is it still in the repos? Can't seem to find it....

Re: Google Chrome Stable

I find the combination of $BROWSER and the word "stable" in a post-2008 context amusing.


I'm so meta, even this acronym

Does "aptitude hold google-chrome-stable" prevent apt-get dist-upgrade from installing chrome when it is in the statler-repository? I prefer opera 11 btw.

same here opera 11 is doing great

Thank you!

If you choose to download the .deb package directly from http://www.google.com/chrome I belive it automagically adds the repository upon installation. I may be wrong though. I didn't check my sources before and after installation.

Thanks! I ended up adding up the repo.
Had trouble with a .deb package wich failed to install correctly, so I decided to play it safe this time.

Re: Google Chrome Stable

I love me some chrome

I was not able to use the command:

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install google-chrome-stable

is this dated? i may not have been thorough enough with reading through this thread. The error appeared to be in finding google-chrome-stable

also, the command:

deb http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/ stable main

yielded an error, where my terminal did not recognize the "deb"

Am I missing something here?

BUT, my issue has been [RESOLVED], as I do have Google Chrome installed and it is my default browser. Downloading it straight from www.google.com worked out great!  Since this issue had been resolved before my posting, I am unsure of how to pull up a history log on my terminal. Sorry about not giving exact errors.

Great thread guys, thanks!

Re: Google Chrome Stable

Did you have the repository set up before running that first command? It isn't in the default sources list, at least not in Waldorf images. You would then get a 'no installation candidate' error.

I did not, looks like I will need to find out which repos I need to setup for future projects, thank you! smile

Me TOO, in fact, in my EARLIEST Linux noob days, I would not even try a distro that did not have Google-Chrome included.  Now that I have learned how to download and install it, I have no worries.  Today, when I installed CrunchBang, Google-Chrome was not default, but it was included in the menu to EASILY install without having to go to the web page download.

I think I'm gonna stop being a firefox fanboy for once and actually give Iceweasel a fair trial. It's just a different name, but in essence, it is still firefox. Besides, all my favorite addons work perfectly under the guise of Iceweasel! So i'm already a happy camper.
