A followup. #933598 got fixed yesterday, the problem was in one of the
patches applied by maintainer.

Good for you. Please refrain from promoting non-free software in this list.

I missed the last piece in the last post:

then run

/usr/bin/google-chrome-unstable as user

and it should start up OK.

Posting this stuff here was harder than installing chrome 77 itself it
seems..

In my case it listed a bunch of path entries except one that I added with
the next command:

You will still get a future warning IIRC but it's not critical it would

Re: Chromium 76

2019-08-02 Thread Michael Fothergill
I have installed Google chrome v 77.0.3865.10 (Official Build) dev (64-bit)
in Debian buster.

It's not chromium.  If that is still OK I did as follows:

Go here and download the dev channel version of chrome:

https://www.chromium.org/getting-involved/dev-channel

You should see a file like this in your download directory:

google-chrome-unstable_current_amd64.deb

then install gdebi.

Now run
gdebi google-chrome-unstable_current_amd64.deb

You will get a res

Do you want to install the software package? [y/N]:y
/usr/bin/gdebi:113: FutureWarning: Possible nested set at position 1
  c = findall("[[(](\S+)/\S+[])]", msg)[0].lower()
dpkg: warning: 'ldconfig' not found in PATH or not executable
dpkg: warning: 'start-stop-daemon' not found in PATH or not executable
dpkg: error: 2 expected programs not found in PATH or not executable
Note: root's PATH should usually contain /usr/local/sbin, /usr/sbin and
/sbin

Then run

echo $PATH

Then run

export PATH="$PATH:/sbin"

Then run
gdebi google-chrome-unstable_current_amd64.deb

This will cure the pesky dpkg PATH errors

then run

/usr/bin/google-chrome-unstable as user

and it should start up OK.

Cheers

Hopefully they skip Chromium version 76.0.3809.87-1.
They broke extension handling in this one - [1], and Google refuses to
fix it.

Chromium 77 is out there somewhere.

I am interested to try out bedrock linux at some point. I think it could
help get around some of these problems.
