Bug ID: 426752
Summary: Chrome very hard to install because of missing
dependencies - Discover, terminal all fails!
Product: neon
Version: unspecified
Platform: Neon Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: crash
Priority: NOR
Component: Packages User Edition
Assignee: neon-b...@kde.org
Reporter: kissm...@abv.bg
CC: j...@jriddell.org, neon-b...@kde.org, sit...@kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
So I installed KDE neon and wanted to install Google Chrome and it gave me some
troubles.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. On fresh install download Google Chrome from their site (.deb file)
2. Try to install with Discover - Error. Try to install with sudo dpkg -i
******.deb - error.
3. It all comes from some dependencies and not being able to find them. So what
I did is to install gdebi. Run gdebi-gtk in the terminal. And then Loading the
deb in the GUI. This way it shows the missing dependencies. Then clicked to
install the file - Error. Had to do Refresh on Gdebi and then try again to
install. It finally installed the dependencies. But couldn't install Chrome. So
I had to close Gdebi, reopen it, load again the deb file and then with now
satisfied dependencies it was finally able to install it.
OBSERVED RESULT
Explained in 3). Basically missing dependencies making it ridiculously hard to
install it.
EXPECTED RESULT
To be able to install it from Discover without any problems!
