Install Google Chrome browser in Ubuntu Linux

Here is a way to run your favourite Google Chrome browser in your Ubuntu Linux desktop.

(Note: Athough there are other ways of installing Chrome on Wine, I have found that is not very efficient.)

So here is a quick and dirty way :)

Open apt sources file

$ sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list

Add these lines at the end

deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/chromium-daily/ppa/ubuntu jaunty main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/chromium-daily/ppa/ubuntu jaunty main

Save (Ctrl+O) and Exit (Ctrl+X) nano.

Update apt

$ sudo apt-get update

Then install Chrome browser with the following command

$ sudo apt-get install chromium-browser

Enjoy ! ;)

___________________________________

Incase you get the following error (while running apt-get update):
The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 5A9BF3BB4E5E17B5

(It means you need to import the key for "Launchpad PPA for chromium-daily")

Resolution: Run the following command
$ sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 5A9BF3BB4E5E17B5
