      @scottalanmiller said in Installing Google Chrome on Fedora 27:

      Chrome is easy to install but isn't included in Fedora. Here is the quick and effective way to do it.

      WTF?

      sudo dnf install -y https://dl.google.com/linux/direct/google-chrome-stable_current_x86_64.rpm
      

      That doesn't include the repo so it can easily update via dnf does it? Although chrome generally updated by itself so you may not need that functionality.

            We’ve been through this before with Lakshmana. I said to just install Chrome from the site and it installs the repo. Took forever to get the point across.

              It's Scott, so of course it has to be unnecessarily over-complicated 😛

                      Does that set up the repo as well, though?
