Do you have backports enabled? Are you running Wheezy? (if no, what release are you running?) Ideally you'll have Wheezy and backports/Testing, or Unstable - in which case use the Google repository. First clean up:- # apt-get -sf install | more The -s will stop the actions from actually happening. Apt 'should' offer to remove google-chrome-stable_current_i386.deb [1] If it does, proceed:- # apt-get -f install (adjust to suit your Debian release) For Wheezy:- Add Google Chrome repositories # echo "# wget -q -O - https://dl-ssl.google.com/linux/linux_signing_key.pub [2] | apt-key add - # or (gpg --keyserver subkeys.pgp.net [3] --recv A040830F7FAC5991 && gpg --export --armor A040830F7FAC5991 |$ # Google Chrome repo http://www.google.com/linuxrepositories/ [4] deb http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/ [5] stable main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/google-chrome.list [6] Add the key # wget -q -O - https://dl-ssl.google.com/linux/linux_signing_key.pub [7] | apt-key add - Add backports (may not be necessary):- # echo "# backports deb http://mirror.aarnet.edu.au/pub/debian/ [8] wheezy-backports main contrib non-free # deb-src http://mirror.aarnet.edu.au/pub/debian/ [9] wheezy-backports main contrib non-free" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/backports.list [10] # apt-get update # apt-get install google-chrome-stable $ dpkg -l google-chrome-stable google-chrome-stable 31.0.1650.57-1 Kind regards This is wehat I get: root@meow:/opt# apt-get install google-chrome-stable Reading package lists...
