dpkg -l > 2] ow do I properly install google chrome Download from google.com (select Debian/Ubuntu package .deb). As root, while in the directory where the downloaded file is, run `dpkg -i downloaded_file`, e.g.: dpkg -i google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb If the above fails with dependency errors (not uncommon), then run: apt-get -f install which should install missing dependencies and then complete the installation of google-chrome. This package from Google not only installs google-chrome, but also adds Google's package repository to your system, so the updates to google-chrome will be installed with regular Debian package management tools.
