So ive been having some trouble with Ubuntu and Snap specifically related to Chromium related to web automation. I can no longer connect Selenium to it and removing Snaps and finding the correct repos to install it took so long i just gave up.
So my question is does Zorin have chromium available in its repo without any of the restrictions that get forced on you with Snap? (mainly apparmour restricting the debug port unless you give it unconditional access)
Thanks
Rob
Welcome to the Forum!
Chromium is unfortunately not availabe as .deb Version on Zorin. There is a Flatpak available if that might be an Option. But it doesn't seem to be an official Flatpak.
Alternatively, You could look what Linux Mint offers. And I know that Debian has Chromium .deb in its Repos but it is not up-to-date.
wget https://dl.google.com/linux/direct/google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb
sudo apt install ./google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb
But this is Google Chrome and not Chromium. And You can download Google Chrome simply as .deb from their Website. The Installation will add the Google Chrome Repo. So, Updates can come then, too.
When Chromium itself would offer that, too ... But I guess it is Intention that it doesn't do that.
See if anything here helps:
You need to read all of the article and then make a decision. It is up to you.
Good point, there are a few variants.
But unfortunately no official Chromium Repo or PPA. That's a bit sad. There are Third-Party Sources that offers it like this in the Description:
No official. but yes xtrade has it:
The PPA sources were included in that last post I made, but was not aware of the source provided by @Aravisian .
