Do you ever make a blog post just so you don’t lose something? I found this post and wanted to echo it here so I would know where to find it..
Google has its open source version of its Chrome browser,called Chromium.
Tom ‘Spot’ Callaway, the Fedora Engineering Manager, has created a rpm repository with precompiled versions of the chromium browser.
To install chromium, create a chromium.repo file in your /etc/yum.repos.d directory (as root).
vim /etc/yum.repos.d/chromium.repo
Then add the following to the file:
[chromium]
name=Chromium Test Packages
baseurl=http://spot.fedorapeople.org/chromium/F$releasever/
enabled=1
gpgcheck=0
name=Chromium Test Packages
baseurl=http://spot.fedorapeople.org/chromium/F$releasever/
enabled=1
gpgcheck=0
A :wqa later you should be able to yum install Chrome (as root)
yum install chromium
Thanks to Rajaseelan for the post…
