When reporting this package as outdated make sure there is indeed a new version for Linux Desktop. You can have a look at the "Dev 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-unstable" | \
     awk '/Version/{print $2}' | \
     cut -d '-' -f1

Do not report updates for ChromeOS, Android or other platforms stable versions as updates here.

Suggestion of own update channels without depending on Debian packages (.deb)

Apparently Google uses a single standard updated URL for the latest Debian version (beta, stable, unstable): https://dl.google.com/linux/direct/google-chrome-beta_current_amd64.deb https://dl.google.com/linux/direct/google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb https://dl.google.com/linux/direct/google-chrome-unstable_current_amd64.deb

One could 'SKIP' the SHA check and do a blind build with version update like so:

source=("https://dl.google.com/linux/direct/google-chrome-${_channel}_current_amd64.deb"
pkgver() {
  tar -xf control.tar.xz './control' --to-command="grep -Pio '(?<=Version: )[\d\.]+'"
}

Hi all,

Currently, when I launch it, I get

$ google-chrome-unstable

InitializeSandbox() called with multiple threads in process gpu-process.

Not sure if that's related to the latest version, but there doesn't seem to be pipewire-related flags anymore in chrome://flags. I noticed that because screensharing does not work for me anymore.

% google-chrome-unstable --version
Google Chrome 91.0.4464.5 dev

Does anyone has similar issues?

Today's 87.0.4280.11 crashes for me with illegal hardware instruction so buyer beware

The same problem for me. It only starts if I remove wayland from my chrome-dev-flags.conf .. but that throws me back to xwayland.

EDIT: there is a bug report here [1]

@luzifer: Rather than the release blog, one can also instantly see the current version on OmahaProxy: https://omahaproxy.appspot.com/

@alumni that article is about chromium, not google-chrome-dev. The file is mentioned during installation:

Custom flags should be put directly in: ~/.config/chrome-dev-flags.conf
The launcher is called: 'google-chrome-unstable'

According to this:

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Chromium#Making_flags_persistent

I can make commandline flags persistent by creating the file ~/.config/chrome-flags.conf. However this doesn't work for me. Any hints?

Later edit: It's chrome-dev-flags.conf

This package will automatically get updated as soon as the Debian package is available. This is checked at least once per hour.
