How to install Google Chrome on Slackware 13 GNU/Linux - Specter1981

Ok so I verified what was suggested and indeed I found some links to seamonkey. I removed them and replaced with symlinks to the files from /usr/lib and even though the error messages are the same at least now I have a working google-chrome.

Now all I need is to find a way for it to render fonts correctly, as firefox does, and I am set!

Hi again,

Thank you for the replies. I can confirm I am using a 32 bit system, slackware 13.
As for chrome's version, it's the one you linked in the post, from slackbuild, the one that repackages the deb release.

Will try to look for the symlinks Johannes mentionned and get back here.

Thanks.

Just thought I'd pop in to mention I was getting the exact same errors as Specter1981. Looking at my /opt/google/chrome directory I found seven symlinks pointing at files in /usr/lib/seamonkey. Removing these made things better. I still get the messages about libz and libpng but Chrome seems to run nicely anyway.

Hi,
this one is very weird, only thing I can think about is about the version of your Slackware : do you run a 32 or 64 bits version ? And what about Chrome is it the 32 or 64 version you got ?
From what you posted it looks like you are using a 32 bits Slackware, but could you confirm this to me please ?

Hey there,

I followed method two but got into the missing libs error messages, so I looked at method one and installed the packages:

-mozilla-nss
-Orbit2
-GConf

from slackbuilds.org but am still running into this error here:

/usr/bin/google-chrome: /usr/lib/libz.so.1: no version information available (required by /usr/bin/google-chrome)
/usr/bin/google-chrome: /usr/lib/libpng12.so.0: no version information available (required by /usr/bin/google-chrome)
/usr/bin/google-chrome: /opt/google/chrome/libnss3.so.1d: version `NSS_3.12' not found (required by /usr/bin/google-chrome)

I repeat - I installed nss and linked the files as shown in method 1. Any ideas/advice are much appreciated thank you

Hi Lortian,

Congratulation ! You just ran into the "miss libnss dependency" problem
Just install libnss from Slackbuild.org (search for the links in the post and in the comments) and you'll have a working chrome.

I've used method 2 and when i try to run chrome i get the following message:

bash-3.1$ /usr/bin/google-chrome: /opt/google/chrome/libnss3.so.1d: version `NSS_3.12' not found (required by /usr/bin/google-chrome)

and i'm not quite sure what that's about...

matt, you are indeed missing the mozilla-nss package.
You can find the direct link into the post, but since I am super kind here it is :

Enjoy !

Moreover, the "close issue from message log" feature looks really great !!

BTW, I was wrong. GitHub has an integrated Issue Tracker since April: http://github.com/blog/411-github-i...

Troll !!! It's still less painfull than this weird script language which told you where to put spaces, called Python !

More seriously (too), I also though of GitHub and I will try it one day... I'm quite confident in the fact I will have the need for a repository that just do repository, some Perl modules for example

<blockquote>I don't know why but I got tired of Perl coding</blockquote>

Because Perl requires uneccessary cognitive overpower ? Sorry, I couldn't resist ! ^^

Seriously, I also have the same feeling regarding Google Code: compared to SourceForge it's less cumbersome, which make it ideal for small to medium sized projects.

I'm currently testing GitHub as an alternative solution to host a bunch of scripts. Looks promising but may not meet your needs (no bug tracker or code review tools).

Anyway, happy coding !

Yes you just miss GConf which is available from Slackbuilds.org at :
http://slackbuilds.org/repository/1...

The error should have disappeared once you install this one.
