Current Chromium ppa

[blazoner]

I am using this post as a note-to-self, if it helps you, even better.

The Chromium-Browser available through the repositories is unfortunately very outdated. Fortunately there is a simple fix.

Taken from this post.

Install Chromium browser:
Update: ppa:a-v-shkop/chromium-dev will try to maintain more-or-less fresh releases of Chromium while Chromium Team won’t release new versions of Chromium browser. Install from this ppa (for now only support Ubuntu 12.04):

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:a-v-shkop/chromium-dev
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install chromium-browser

The OP gives a non-install version as well, but the ppa is working well for me, and it is a simple fix.
I am now running Version 23.0.1246.0 Ubuntu 12.04 (153452) sweet as you please.

***NOTE*** You do not need to re-install chromium-browser, but re-installing won't hurt. It will update your current install through Update Manager automatically the next time it is run. Or you can just run update manager manually.

Only problem is it's only for 32bit systems 64bit requires IA32 libs I just run
Google Chrome Version 23.0.1255.0 dev 64bit it's the closest you can get to the chromium dev or daily builds for 64bit systems.

Interesting, as I am running 12.04 64 bit myself with no problems.

Come to think of it, I do have IA32 libs installed already so didn't notice the change... Just can't bring myself to use Chrome instead of Chromium....

WRONG!
