Comment #15 on issue 1565 by johnmee: Don't make GoogleUpdate always-resident http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=1565
Thanks erikkay for explaining the pickle. If the update occurs only when the browser is in use (eg: irritating prompt for restart during session) then the 2% boot crash scenario will happen only in the context of the user knowing that an update is occuring, and the update has obviously failed. Is 'i-see-i-crashed-on-last-boot-do-you-want-to-revert-to-previous-version' too ugly and/or much work? ok probably. Alternatively, given that only advanced users care about a resident app 'clogging up and interfering with' their system make this feature an option (default to residency). If the 2% crash scenario occurs then they can pride themselves on how savvy they are to google around for the problem/solution, alas with another browser/machine. They're quite likely accustomed to being an oppressed and unloved minority. -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.
