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']

When reporting this package as outdated make sure there is indeed a new version for Linux Desktop.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:
Do not report updates for ChromeOS, Android or other platforms stable versions as updates here.
