Source - http://www.webupd8.org/2016/03/fix-failed-to-fetch-google-chrome_3.htmlWe've removed Chrome from the Lite Software 32bit version.For 32bit Google Chrome:Open a terminal and do each of these commands one at a time:Code: [Select]sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/google-chrome.listsudo apt-get remove google-chrome-stableInstall Chromium via Lite Software. Do not keep Chrome installed on 32bit Linux Lite. You are placing your system at risk by taking this chance.For 64bit Google Chrome:Open a terminal and do each of these commands one at a time:Code: [Select]sudo sed -i -e 's/deb http/deb [arch=amd64] http/' "/etc/apt/sources.list.d/google-chrome.list"sudo sed -i -e 's/deb http/deb [arch=amd64] http/' "/opt/google/chrome/cron/google-chrome"
sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/google-chrome.listsudo apt-get remove google-chrome-stable
sudo sed -i -e 's/deb http/deb [arch=amd64] http/' "/etc/apt/sources.list.d/google-chrome.list"sudo sed -i -e 's/deb http/deb [arch=amd64] http/' "/opt/google/chrome/cron/google-chrome"
At this point, it may behoove you to just install Chrome via their website. Download and run the 64-bit *.deb file. I think it can be found here: https://www.google.com/chrome/browser/desktop/index.html#
google-chrome-stable
sudo apt-get update
...reinstall Chrome via Lite Software.
Monkeyman,You didn't need to uninstall your 64-bit version of Chrome. Instead you could have copied and pasted the two lines associated with the 64-bit Chrome fix, and your updates would have continued.To get back to a world with Amazon working in a browser, reinstall Chrome via Lite Software. If you run into the same problem with updates not running afterwards, then copy and paste those two lines.This is not a Linux Lite issue. It's a Google issue that is affecting Debian/Ubuntu based Linux distributions. And it's been going on for a week.
New Chrome out today, looking at some of the code, it looks like they fixed the repo issue eg.Code: [Select]# sources.list setting for google-chrome updates.REPOCONFIG="deb [arch=amd64] http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/ stable main"REPOCONFIGREGEX="deb (\[arch=[^]]*\bamd64\b[^]]*\][[:space:]]*)?https?://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/ stable main"
