It seems pretty unlikely that Gnome has much if anything to do with
this. The issue occurred when installing the package through the Ubuntu
software center, so that should probably be the focus of this bug
report. In the dialog box that comes up when the operation fails, there
should be a option labeled "details". Add the output from that screen to
this report and set it back to new. The installation details will give
us a better idea of what part of the installation is failing and will
allow us to redirect this bug to the correct package.

Title:
Ubuntu Gnome 14.04 will not install Google Chrome through Ubuntu
Software Center
Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Two Events to report.
1. I downloaded Google Chrome stable via Firefox 28 and had it open to
the software center for installation. The dialog box came up normally
and looked as if it were installing. But, after 30 seconds or so, the
authorization dialog box appeared asking me to put in my password for
it to proceed installation. After a minute or so after that, it
stopped and failed with "Package Operation Failed".
Repeated the install by purging chrome deb. from google, and tried
again downloading and trying step 1 above with same result. Same
effect with chrome unstable.
2. The next step tried was just downloading it straight from Google
and having it place it in the downloads folder. Opened it and of
course it tried to install with the USC, with same error as number 1
above.
