When reporting this package as outdated make sure there is indeed a new version for Linux Desktop.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

@sjakub Are you absolutely sure that "grep Exec /usr/share/applications/google-chrome.desktop" returns something different from "Exec=/opt/google-chrome/google-chrome %U" like it does on my system?

@ Det of course I changed "/google/chrome/" to "/google-chrome/", however it was still broken (and I was confused, hehe), so now I'm going to use your script (hope it'll work :<)

@sjakub, a single post is quite enough and the PKGBUILD is not "BROKEN" nor does it need "fixing" (atm). Also there has already been talk about the .desktop file :). @Weegee, of course it does. You just need to change the "/google/chrome/" indications to "/google-chrome/" (since that's where this package is currently installed to) and realize that "the google-chrome script" part needs to be redone every time the main Chrome script is overwritten (Chrome is updated) :). Here's the step-by-step instructions again (tweaked a bit): http://aur.pastebin.com/TYJW0LGZ I also made a script for doing this (mostly out of boredom - took like an hour so I guess it was worth it). You (of course) need to "chmod +x" it and run it as root (but you probably wanna _check_ the script at first before doing so - nor would I blame you if you did). This also works with iron and chromium-browser (you can manually choose which one you like (only one at the time, though)): http://aur.pastebin.com/8B7R9m48

this line fixes what you say: sed -i "s|google/chrome|google-chrome|g" $(grep -Rls "/google/chrome" *) and is already in the pkgbuild det has suggested the directory change, none has said anything in contrast, so it has been done
