When reporting this package as outdated make sure there is indeed a new version for Linux Desktop.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

You are right. It works now.

@simontunnat: That looks more like a hiccup in the AUR git repo… Just try again…

I get the following error message when trying to update to version "":

" error fetching google-chrome: fatal: unable to access 'https://aur.archlinux.org/google-chrome.git/': Received HTTP code 502 from proxy after CONNECT "

Is there something wrong with the package definition?

@Parintachin:

Thanks for the help. Yes, --force-device-scale-factor=2 does fix the problem.

Thank you. -Jack

@Jackcode01:

Yup; apparently it's a bug further up the chain? It came up again when Brave was updated yesterday; the guy maintaining that package was good enough to answer me.

A fix is to run Chrome with --force-device-scale-factor=2, as described here: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/HiDPI#Chromium_/_Google_Chrome

On Manjaro KDE with 200% scale setting, Everything is HUGE!

to get get hardware video acceleration, you need to explicitly pass; --enable-features=VaapiVideoDecoder

in the CLI. the flag “enable-accelerated-video-decode” is no more in chrome 91.

Using this on a high-dpi screen with scaling appears to apply the scaling twice. Everything's huge.

Manjaro KDE.

Hello, thank you maintaining this PKGBUILD. I wonder if a script similar to archlinux-java could be added. Currently package() results in a script called /usr/bin/google-chrome-stable but there are tools/libraries that rely on existence of google-chrome instead.

Here's an example for webbrowser python module:

python -c 'import webbrowser; webbrowser.get(); print(webbrowser._tryorder)' => ['firefox', 'xdg-open', 'epiphany', 'opera', 'links', 'elinks', 'lynx', 'w3m']

After creating a symbolic links this starts to works as expected:

ln -s /usr/bin/google-chrome-stable /usr/bin/google-chrome
python -c 'import webbrowser; webbrowser.get(); print(webbrowser._tryorder)' => ['firefox', 'xdg-open', 'epiphany', 'google-chrome', 'opera', 'links', 'elinks', 'lynx', 'w3m']
