Public bug reported:
The problem is that, in this version of the operating system at home
,installing Google Chrome was a bit 'more difficult than usual because
of an error that I was returned from Ubuntu Software Centre during the
installation process.
The bug is simple but annoying: you can not install Google Chrome in 32
or 64-bit on Ubuntu 11.10 by simply downloading the deb package from the
official site. When you open the file with Ubuntu Software Centre, the
error you get is the following:
Internal Error
"The file google-chrome-stable_current_i386.deb can not be opened."
Fortunately the solution is very simple. Open the terminal and you have
to move the folder containing the file. Deb that you downloaded Google
Chrome. In my case I typed:
sudo dpkg -i ~/username/google-chrome-stable_current_i386.deb
Enter your password and proceed with the installation. Now Google Chrome
will not install but the terminal will return an error. No fear, you
have to install Chrome finally type:
sudo apt-get install -f
And finally you can also enjoy the Google browser on Ubuntu 11.10
