I've seen Chrome (when installed via the official rpm packaging from Google) report that it needs restarted to pick up an update that's been installed, but I've never seen it update itself on Linux. (Not that I can't be wrong about that, of course.) The google-chrome repo managed by Google is generally kept up to date. Are you positive that you haven't installed an update to Chrome since the last time you restarted the app? I know that several vulnerabilities discussed recently have already been patched and shipped to the google-chrome repo. The latest stable version on the Chrome release page is 86.0.4240.198, which is what's been in the google-chrome package repo since the middle of last week. > AFAIK the built-in updater is not going to coordinate with the RPM > database, so I wouldn't do this myself.

Since google-chrome is not in the Fedora repos, it won't be in updates or updates-testing. ;) -- Todd
