When reporting this package as outdated make sure there is indeed a new version for Linux Desktop.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.

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

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

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

When building chrome from current version I see:

==> Tidying install...
  -> Removing empty directories...
  -> Removing libtool files...
  -> Purging unwanted files...
  -> Removing static library files...
  -> Compressing man and info pages...
libfakeroot internal error: payload not recognized!

The package does still build and chrome runs fine - but I wonder if the libfakeroot command line error message can be fixed by any change in the PKGBUILD? I have seen similar error reports concerning libvirt (eg https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=298643).

The new Google Chrome version is freezing for me.

--gtk-version=4 does not work with fcitx5, use --gtk-version=3 to fix this,my flags: google-chrome-stable --ozone-platform=wayland --enable-features=ozone --enable-wayland-ime --disable-features=WaylandFractionalScaleV1 --gtk-version=3

@Comodin, please supply the actual full error message and surrounding logs. Like this we will not be able to help you! Also please familiarize yourself with the process of installing packages without and AUR helper and see if the problem pops up with the methods described there aswell: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Arch_User_Repository#Installing_and_upgrading_packages

error to install: [/home/comodin/.cache/yay/google-chrome/google-chrome-124.0.6367.155-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst] - exit status 1

Currently, --gtk-version=4 won't work (Chrome loads GTK3). This makes IME unusable under Wayland.

Apparently, if you modify the wrapper script at /opt/google/chrome/google-chrome to either comment out export LD_LIBRARY_PATH or prepend /usr/lib to it, this CLI flag starts working and it starts loading GTK4.

Am I the only one with broken emojis on certain sites - like this one: https://emojipedia.org/money-with-wings ? It is broken just on the title

jtag commented on 2024-04-28 10:33 (UTC)

Adding these lines to ~/.config/chrome-flags.conf resolved the issue for me:

--enable-features=UseOzonePlatform
--ozone-platform=wayland
