When reporting this package as outdated make sure there is indeed a new version for Linux Desktop. You can have a look at the "Beta updates" tag in Release blog for this.

You can also run this command to obtain the version string for the latest chrome beta version:

$ curl -sSf https://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/dists/stable/main/binary-amd64/Packages | \
     grep -A1 "Package: google-chrome-beta" | \
     awk '/Version/{print $2}' | \
     cut -d '-' -f1

Do not report updates for ChromeOS, Android or other platforms stable versions as updates here.

Hi, first of all thanks for your effort. I have only one problem using the application. When I create a PWA of a webpage and add as aplication I cannot the icon of it.

I've read this a bug from kde itself and was fixed in an update. I'm using Manjaro Linux with KDE Plasma 5.26.5 Do you know any way to fix it?

Thanks in advance!

Latest version 96 does not work on XWayland. The program opens but no window appears. Works if I run it as Ozone/Wayland.

Apparently Google uses a single standard updated URL for the latest Debian version (beta, stable, unstable): https://dl.google.com/linux/direct/google-chrome-beta_current_amd64.deb https://dl.google.com/linux/direct/google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb https://dl.google.com/linux/direct/google-chrome-unstable_current_amd64.deb

One could 'SKIP' the SHA check and do a blind build with version update like so:

source=("https://dl.google.com/linux/direct/google-chrome-${_channel}_current_amd64.deb"
pkgver() {
  tar -xf control.tar.xz './control' --to-command="grep -Pio '(?<=Version: )[\d\.]+'"
}

Google Chrome stopped working after updating systemd to 249-3, the error is:

ERROR:network_service_instance_impl.cc(331)] Network service crashed, restarting service.

Seems like the issue is related to DNS resolving, as browser can still open simple pages if I use IP address.

Downgrading to systemd 248-3 resolves the issue. Meanwhile Chromium works totally fine with systemd 249-3.

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

I had the problem with 84.0.4147.30-1 the GUI didn't want to resize properly. I had to revert to 83.0.4103.61-1 for the browser to be useable. Anybody else seeing this? (I'm on MATE desktop BTW.)

Well. Bash is part of base, which is sort of assumed to be installed on the system along with base-devel, if you're not a [core] pacakge.

Please remove bash usage from /usr/bin/google-chrome-beta or add bash as dependency to the package.
