Cannot update to Chrome stable 13. Missing library.

#1

Up to now I could without problem stay quite up to date with my Chrome. But now I am getting the following error messages while trying to install.

### YaST2 conflicts list - generated 2011-09-10 23:48:21 ####

niente fornisce libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.11) necessario a google-chrome-stable-13.0.782.220-99552.i386

     ] non installare google-chrome-stable-13.0.782.220-99552.i386




#### YaST2 conflicts list END ###

Where can I retrieve lib.so.6?

Hi,
go here : software.opensuse.org: Search Results
type glibc into the search box and get the one corresponding to your OS.

@stakanov: what’s the repo you use for Chrome? There’s been a change. Chrome is now in Index of /repositories/network:/chromium/openSUSE_11.4 (that’s for 11.4, change to your version).

You could also take a look in Yast - Software - Software Management, switch on all search options and search for the exact name of the missing dep.

Unfortunately for my version (11.1) there are no repos any more. My Chrome repo is:

  URLhttp://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/rpm/stable/i386

and I used it because evergreen does not offer Chrome.
But now the missing library poses some problem. Maybe I should compile from the source?

“Chrome-stable” is from Google’s own repository and their openSUSE RPM is broken.

Instead, get the current build from Packman, if that repository is already installed, then just install “Chromium.”


$zypper refresh
$zypper install chromium

HTH,
