Upgrade Google Chrome from beta to stable

25 May 2010 No Comment

Google Chrome is now out of Beta status for Linux. Unfortunately, the apt-get repository is not quite pushing the stable release as of this writing. Upgrade to the stable version of Chrome with the following Terminal commands.

sudo aptitude remove google-chrome-beta sudo aptitude install google-chrome-stable

Edit: The later command in this string does not seem to work for all systems. In that case, simply use Ubuntu’s default browser Firefox and navigate to http://www.google.com/chrome and download the stable version for Linux.
