When reporting this package as outdated make sure there is indeed a new version for Linux Desktop.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

Would you please consider putting up a google-chrome-debug PKGBUILD? Debug symbol files for Chrome are public and can be downloaded, see: https://issues.chromium.org/issues/41141025#comment44.

For me google-chrome-beta (125.0.6422.4) shows up normally and as wayland surface (without any switch/config needed), maybe next release will fix this white screen issue ...

facing the ozone platform = wayland issue. the browser windows do not show.

@ciupenhauer, honestly I think that updating + adding the --ozone-platform=wayland option to the launch options is the best option.

@Edu4rdSHL thanks for all the links. Doesn't look like this will get solved anytime soon, it's been reported since march. Downgrading seems the best option

need to add CHROME_WRAPPER environment variable so that the PWA application startup icon gets the correct exec path.

export CHROME_WRAPPER="`readlink -f "$0"`"

Avoid updating to version 124 if you use Wayland. It doesn't work there since the beta. https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/google-chrome-beta#comment-963012

Edit: here's the upstream report: https://issues.chromium.org/issues/329678163

It only seems to affect if you have set the option from chrome://flags/, if you manually run google-chrome-stable --ozone-platform=wayland from the command line, it works.

If you only build for yourself, look here: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1000549#p1000549

Like others I had noticed the very long time on the final compression in recent months that was taking a minute or so. I looked at the thread at https://www.reddit.com/r/archlinux/comments/1bwyv1q/how_do_you_fix_zstds_slowness/ and decided to change the COMPRESSZST in .config/pacman/makepkg.conf to COMPRESSZST=(zstd -c -T4 -8 -) and now when I run the chrome browser build it takes a second or so to do the compression. The final .zst file is now 130M instead of the 112M when using the standard ultra compression, but for me the file size is less important than the very long compression time. I thought I would pass this on in case others might wish to do something similar.
