Hope this is readable your end - barely readable this end and the thread is broken. Don't think I ever used a worse MUA than ATMail On 25/11/13 08:46, erosenb...@hygeiabiomedical.com [1] wrote: > > > > > Kind regards > > > root@meow:/# apt-get -t squeeze-backports install google-chrome-stable It's not in squeeze-backports - it's in google. (don't know 'where' you got that from) You have not added the google repository to your sources.list/s [2] You don't have squeeze-backports enabled anyway (which is good, it'd break your Wheezy system). 1. As root, copy and paste the following block of text into a terminal:- echo "### THIS FILE IS AUTOMATICALLY CONFIGURED ### # wget -q -O - https://dl-ssl.google.com/linux/linux_signing_key.pub [3] | apt-key add - # Google Chrome repo http://www.google.com/linuxrepositories/ [4] deb http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/ [5] stable main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/google-chrome.list [6] That will create a file /etc/apt/sources.list.d/google-chrome.list [7] containing the location of the google repositories. 2. As root, copy and paste the following code into a terminal:- wget -q -O - https://dl-ssl.google.com/linux/linux_signing_key.pub [8] | apt-key add - That will download the Google code signing key and add it to your system 3. As root, copy and paste the following code into a terminal:- apt-get update That will update the apt database with the list of packages available at the repositories listed in /etc/apt/sources.list [9] and any files called *.list in /etc/apt/sources.list.d [10] Your system will then know about the google-chrome package 4. Finally, as root copy and paste the following code into a terminal:- apt-get install google-chrome stable Kind regards Thanks - This is what I get: root@meow:/# cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/google-chrome.list deb http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/ stable main root@meow:/# wget -q -O - https://dl-ssl.google.com/linux/linux_signing_key.pub | > apt-key add - OK root@meow:/# wget -q -O - https://dl-ssl.google.com/linux/linux_signing_keypub |apt-key add - OK root@meow:/# apt-get install google-chrome stable Reading package lists...
