Odata cu lansarea browserului web Chrome pentru platforma Linux, Google pune la dispozitie si un repository care poate fi folosit pentru a instala si/sau actualiza diferitele aplicatii Google cu ajutorul utilitarului yum.

Pentru a include acest repository pe un calculator cu Fedora, trebuie definit un fisier .repo astfel:

#cat /etc/yum.repos.d/google.repo

[google]
name=Google repo
baseurl=http://dl.google.com/linux/rpm/stable/$basearch
enabled=1
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=https://dl-ssl.google.com/linux/linux_signing_key.pub
Odata definit fisierul .repo instalarea browserului web Chrome se face foarte simplu prin intermediul yum astfel:

[root@Fedora-Machine1 ~]# yum install google-chrome-beta


Loaded plugins: refresh-packagekit
