Below is a python snippet, which should attempt to initialize a
webdriver instance.
from selenium import webdriver
browser = webdriver.Chrome("/usr/lib/chromium-browser/chromedriver")
print("chrome driver init done")
browser.close()
And there's an error:
Traceback (most recent call last):

Title:
armhf chromedriver version doesn't match browser
Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Hi, I installed chromium-browser and chromium-driver using apt-get
I ran two commands:
sudo apt-get install chromium-browser && sudo apt-get install
chromium--chromedriver
But the versions doesn't seem to match each other.
I could not instantiate a simple browser using both
Chromium-browser/chromedriver installed by the above command.
Tried with selenium module using python and it would just crash.
According to this link:
https://sites.google.com/a/chromium.org/chromedriver/downloads
ChromeDriver must be higher or equal to 2.41 for it to work with Chromium 69.
So, I ran the following commands, only to find out that the versions for
these packages are not compatible with each other.
/usr/lib/chromium-browser/chromedriver --version
ChromeDriver 2.40
chromium-browser --version
Chromium 69.0.3497.81 Built on Ubuntu , running on Ubuntu 16.04
I would think this is a bug, since the versions are not compatible
with each other would render the chromedriver useless but they should
be compatible and cooperating just fine.
