When reporting this package as outdated make sure there is indeed a new version for Linux Desktop. You can have a look at the «Stable updates» tag in Release blog for this. Do not report updates for ChromeOS, Android or other platforms stable versions as updates here.

This package will automatically get updated as soon as the Debian package is available. This is checked at least once per hour.

Thanks for updating!

@FabioLolix Thanks for the ping! I suppose I marked that read, got distracted and never re-visited that PR… I’m very sorry about that! Will take care about it this evening!

FabioLolix commented on 2021-10-05 20:45

Hello, do you mind adding a copy of widevine license in the default place? The PR have been open for 10 months yet is so trivial, since I made the PR you made part of it (replacing msg2 with printf), just copy the other 2 line too

If you’re having trouble with «use system titlebar and borders» setting, you can just wait for patch to come. For details, please refer to https://chromium-review.googlesource.com/c/chromium/src/+/3133066

Since version 92/93 I’ve been having 5-second freezing issues on AMD iGPU Ryzen 4000. Does anyone know how to fix this? I’ve tried disabling all hardware acceleration but it doesn’t help.

michaldybczak commented on 2021-09-24 19:44

Thanks @zeparu, I have the same problem with titlebar. Disabling this flag restores titlebar in Plasma, however, the whole option of turning SSD on/off is gone. It works for me, but the underlying issue is still there. The option stopped working.

just updated today, and «use system titlebar and borders» is not working anymore for me on kde

How to Install Google Chrome in Arch-based Linux Distributions

Last updated August 15, 2020 By Dimitrios 38 Comments

Brief: A step-by-step beginner’s tutorial showing how to install Google chrome in Arch, Manjaro and other Arch-based Linux distributions.

Google Chrome is undeniably the most popular web browser. It is not open source software and this is why you won’t see it preinstalled in Linux distributions you use. You won’t even find Chrome in the software center.

Installing Google Chrome is easy in Ubuntu and Fedora based distribution. You can go to Chrome’s website and download the DEB or RPM installer files and install it easily.

Arch Linux users may notice that there is no package for them on the official Google Chrome website.

Fortunately, Google Chrome is available on Arch User Repository (AUR) for Arch, Manjaro and other Arch-based Linux distributions. You can install Google Chrome using an AUR Helper easily or use Git to install it without AUR helper.

I will cover both options in this tutorial.

Method 1: Installing Google Chrome with an AUR Helper

I hope that you are familiar with the concept of AUR (Arch User Repository) and AUR helpers. If not, please read our articles on what is AUR and what are AUR helpers and how to install them.

Step 1: Install an AUR helper (if you haven’t got one already)

There are quite a few AUR Helpers to choose but in this tutorial, I will use yay which I have installed on my machine. You should install it if you haven’t got it already:

Step 2: Install Google Chrome using AUR helper

Now, to install Google Chrome in Arch Linux using yay:

As you see, yay found all the available packages related to Google Chrome. I will choose the stable package to install, the same as I chose for the other installation method.

Step 3: Upgrading Chrome version with yay

You successfully installed Chrome on your Arch-based distribution. However, you should also know what to do if there is a new version of Google Chrome available.

You cannot upgrade AUR packages with pacman command unfortunately. But the good thing is that Yay and pacman share common flags for performing similar actions.

The following command will upgrade all the packages – both AUR and official.

Method 2: Install Google Chrome without an AUR Helper

You’ll still be getting the package from Arch User Repository. However, instead of AUR helper, you’ll be doing it manually.

Step 1: Install base-devel package

To install a package from AUR you must have Git and base-devel group installed. Base-devel group contains all the essential tools for compiling from source.

Step 2: Install Chrome from AUR

Clone Google Chrome from the AUR and install it like this:

Step 3: Upgrading Google Chrome afterward

When a new version of Google Chrome is released and it is available in the AUR, you can upgrade it manually like this:

Conclusion

As you can see, it is slightly complicated to install Google Chrome in the Arch domain. But that’s the beauty of it. Many people use Arch because it gets you doing more things in the terminal.

If you encountered any difficulty when you try to install Google Chrome, let us know at the comment section or share your thoughts.

How to install Google Chrome on Arch Linux

Usually, presenting Google Chrome in Ubuntu or Fedora is very much easy and uncomplicated. It is very much simple. You can simply go to Chrome’s site and from there; you can download the DEB or RPM installer records. And then introduce it without any problem. DEB files are actually derived from the Debian-based distros which in this case is Ubuntu. On the other side, RPM files are Redhat-based distros and they are connected with Fedora. Linux users can face the problems of not finding the required bundle on Chrome and it can be possible.

But there is no need to get upset as Arch User Repository for the Arch, Manjaro and many other Arch-based Linux productions provide easy access to Google. Two possible ways of Google installation can be:

• By using the Arch User Repository.
• By using Git (control type of system) if one doesn’t have AUR.

Here, in this helpful guide in which I will be covering the two choices in this instructional exercise.

Technique 1: Installation of Chrome with an AUR.

Arch User Repository carries the information about the description of the package (which is the PKGBUILDS) and following that it’s called the community-leading depot. It allows its users to assemble a package from its source or origin. You can utilize makepkg for this purpose. And then, the package is installed via the pacman. Still, if anything is unexplained then it would be highly recommended that you read other articles about what is AUR or what are AUR aides and how to introduce them. You should be well-informed so that you may not experience any difficulty while installing.

Stage 1: Install an AUR partner (on the off chance that you have not got one as of now)

There are multiple AUR Helpers present for you to pick. However, in this instructional exercise, I will utilize the AUR helper named yay, which I have introduced on my machine. You ought to install it, if it is not available on your system, then use these commands:
