Chrome not Chromium on Fedora 24

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I noticed that chromium was now in the fedora repo, so I 
installed it. It turns out that pepperflash is not included, 
but I found freshplayerplugin on rpmfusion. I was not able to 
get it working (the audio/video/ebooks from the public 
library services, such as overdrive, hoopla, Naxos Music 
Library, did not work).

There was already a google-chrome-stable repo in yum.repos.d 
from before, so I updated chrome. This is where the 
problems/confusion began...

1. google-chome-stable is no longer located in /usr/bin
2. no links appear in the launcher (easy to create manually)
3. dead links to the executable in /usr/bin and 
/etc/alternatives
4. chrome is now installed to /opt
5. the google chome repo file has vanished from yum.repos.d
6. privacy badger does not recognize chrome in /opt and no 
amount of uninstalling, closing down chrome, restarting and 
freshly installing the badger would get it to work

So...

Can I manually create the google-chrome-stable repo file and 
will it now update the version installed to /opt, or is this 
going to cause a big mess?

Or, do I henceforth have to uninstall chrome and reinstall 
for every new upgrade?
