In this quick post I will show you how to install Google Chrome on Fedora / CentOS / Red Hat and how to add Google’s repository so that you always get the latest updates. You can install either from Google Chrome’s official page or you can add the repository and then install. If you like to download the RPM directly then follow this link. After you have installed Google Chrome you should still add the repository by doing the following.
sudo gedit /etc/yum.repos.d/google-chrome.repo
Once you have run this command you should see gedit open with a blank file, simply paste the below depending on if you are running 32Bit or 64Bit.
32Bit Google Chrome CentOS/Fedora Repository
[google-chrome]
name=google-chrome
baseurl=http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/rpm/stable/i386
enabled=1
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=https://dl-ssl.google.com/linux/linux_signing_key.pub
64Bit Google Chrome CentOS/Fedora Repository
[google-chrome]
name=google-chrome
baseurl=http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/rpm/stable/x86_64
enabled=1
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=https://dl-ssl.google.com/linux/linux_signing_key.pub
If you decided to add the repository and install through it instead of downloading it from the Google Chrome website then you can install by running the following command.
yum install google-chrome-stable
I hope this helped you get Google Chrome installed on your Fedora/CentOS, more posts are one the way. Please don’t forget to share/like/tweet!
