Crash on Google Chrome installation

Hey everybody,

I installed openSUSE tumbleweed now by net installer boot.
After that, I tried to installing the official Google Chrome on my Tumbleweed. (not interested in Chromium)

But, I got the following error when I want to install its downloaded rpm file:

Error: INVALID:google-chrome-stable-139.0.7258.138-1.x86_64 (file-9ad305c4): Signature verification failed [4-Signatures public key is not available]
Header V4 RSA/SHA512 Signature, key ID 32ee5355a6bc6e42: NOKEY
Header SHA256 digest: OK
Header SHA1 digest: OK
Payload SHA256 digest: OK
MD5 digest: OK

What should I do now?

Thank you

@mbzadegan You need to import the key and add as root user…

wget https://dl.google.com/linux/linux_signing_key.pub
rpm --import linux_signing_key.pub

Then install again…

Here’s the easy way … add the repo, then two more steps
(Chrome will be include in any “zypper dup” runs)

sudo zypper ar -f http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/rpm/stable/x86_64 google-chrome 
.
sudo rpm -import https://dl-ssl.google.com/linux/linux_signing_key.pub
.
sudo zypper in google-chrome-stable 

And, of course, if you’re adventurous, you can add the other releases of Chrome … as we do here:

uname@mach  # zypper search -i -r google-chrome

@mbzadegan May I ask on why you aren’t interested on Chromium?
I personally use firefox that comes preinstalled and only for website incompatibility purposes I installed Chromium from openSUSE repos.
I had the same experience with Vivaldi but didn’t knew back then about the signature key import.
