Title:
Ubuntu 14.04 will not install Google Chrome through Ubuntu Software
Center
Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
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.
