When reporting this package as outdated make sure there is indeed a new version for Linux Desktop.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

Easy way to check is for example to put an "exit" on line 51 and go to the pkg/opt/google/chrome/cron/ directory yourself (or Ctrl+C anytime after extraction and before that line): https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/PKGBUILD?h=google-chrome#n51 It basically seems to create and re-enable the Chrome repo for Debian/Ubuntu, which we don't need, since we don't have APT.

Please excuse my noob question, but I'm trying to understand all these PKGBUILD files that I'm supposed to audit before letting them loose on my system. ;) What is the purpose of the Debian Cron jobs that Google has in their deb, and why are they removed in the PKGBUILD file?

Det commented on 2017-03-23 16:11 (UTC)

Should work like that, yes, dunno why not, because not a whole lot is changed in the packaging. Does it work on some other distro's Chrome? Maybe have a look at the "What are some common mistakes when installing with the preferences file?" in the FAQ?: https://developer.chrome.com/extensions/external_extensions#faq

DescartesHorse commented on 2017-03-23 05:25 (UTC)

Hey, I've got a custom extension internally to our company (extension ID.json with update URL). Based on Google Chrome's documentation at https://developer.chrome.com/extensions/external_extensions I should be able to plop this in either /opt/google/chrome/extensions/ or /usr/share/google-chrome/extensions/ and have Google Chrome pick this up. This is not happening - wondering if this package is looking for extensions in another place? If so, where is that? :)

@solus667, check first also, if it's updated.

Anyone else who would not like to bother themselves with the Pinned Comments?

Anyone got an issue loading their user profile after latest update? :( Edit: nevermind, after starting chrome with --disable-extensions, then without again, it loaded fine again. Weird.
