I think there was a fairly brief hiatus in google-chrome-stable in Fedora-24, which has been cured by the most recent update. ls -ls /usr/bin/google* Sep 4 12:19 /usr/bin/google-chrome -> /etc/alternatives/google-chrome Sep 2 00:20 /usr/bin/google-chrome-stable -> /opt/google/chrome/google- chrome ls -ls /etc/alternatives/google-chrome Sep 4 12:19 /etc/alternatives/google-chrome -> /usr/bin/google-chrome- stable -- Timothy Murphy gayleard /at/ eircom.net School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/users@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
