google chrome

Although I hate it, there are web pages that don't work on Firefox or Chromium. In those cases I install google-chrome and uninstall as soon as I don't need to use that service.

Installation⚑

Debian⚑

  • Import the GPG key, and use the following command. 

    sudo wget -O- https://dl.google.com/linux/linux_signing_key.pub | gpg --dearmor > /usr/share/keyrings/google-chrome.gpg

  • Once the GPG import is complete, you will need to import the Google Chrome repository.

echo 'deb [arch=amd64 signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/google-chrome.gpg] http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/ stable main' | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/google-chrome.list
  • Install the program: 
    apt-get update
apt-get install google-chrome-stable

Usage⚑

Open a specific profile⚑

google-chrome --profile-directory="Profile Name"

Where Profile Name is one of the profiles listed under ls ~/.config/chromium | grep -i profile.
