can't install Chromium 110

Post by blufeld »

Linux Mint 21.1, can't install Chromium from Software Manager or with Synaptic. Something to do with vera being missing. Is there a procedure to install Chromium on the latest LM?

Is the Chromium software package not named chromium-browser?
Cf. the package name given on this Linux Mint repository webpage: http://packages.linuxmint.com/list.php?release=vera
Provided my memory serves me right, the corresponding installation command would read sudo apt-get install chromium-browser

By the way, unless I am mistaken, then the current version is 111.x, no longer 110.x.

P.S.:
On older Mint releases the package name used to be chromium-browser, on current releases it is chromium.

Reason: Had to correct the package name. It used to be chromium-browser, on recent Mint releases, it is indeed chromium.

OK. I stand corrected. :oops:
On the same page, which I had linked to, only a bit further down, there is the entry chromium 111.0.5563.64~linuxmint1+vera
