When reporting this package as outdated make sure there is indeed a new version for Linux Desktop.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

I could change the pkgbuild if there's a way to predict the build number automatically, so I can change the sript to read the version and modify the pkgbuild accordingly.

T3ddy is already updating this thing every time someone flags it. He's just talking about not needing to change the build number when doing so.

I agree with tarpman, as that is the way PKGBUILD's are supposed to work. Even beyond that, I'm sure someone can flag it out of date if you miss an update or forget. As a maintainer, I find that's the much more easier and lazier way of doing it: only update when someone pesters me lol

I like your idea. The problem is that chrome gets updated very frequently, so I'm using a script to do the job. Making your change will make the script useless and increase my work. For now I won't make changes, anyway thanks for your suggestion :)

Instead of taking the current version from the direct DL link and having your md5sum fail when it changes, you could point the PKGBUILD at the versioned deb from the pool instead. e.g. http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/pool/main/g/google-chrome-stable/google-chrome-stable_15.0.874.120-r108895_amd64.deb When they clean out old versions that will start to 404 (and also directory listings aren't enabled so you have to know the exact filename you want to download) but I prefer that to an md5sum failure.

Add dependencies xdg-utils becouse not open downloads folder.

Det commented on 2011-10-27 10:41 (UTC)

Or you can just check the version number to see whether it matches with the latest one: http://googlechromereleases.blogspot.com/search/label/Stable%20updates I'd prefer building with 'makepkg -si --skipinteg' anyway, since 1) the chances of getting a corrupt download from Google servers in practice are nonexistant and 2) you'd be using the md5sum of your own corrupt download anyway.

<deleted-account> commented on 2011-10-27 09:24 (UTC)

If the md5sum fails, it is probably because the *.deb package was updated. If you are certain your *.deb download is OK, you can manually replace the appropriate md5sum in the PKGBUILD or use the command posted below by nDray. Google-chrome is updated very frequently, so md5sums are difficult for the package maintainer to keep current.

@massol, that's not a fix - it does the same thing. Clear out your package cache first.
