@mvjap3 Please have a look at our MAQeia for Chrome:
viewtopic.php?f=36&t=2053As you already have it installed, you should also have the repository for it configured automatically. To confirm that, please post the output of
- Code: Select all
urpmq --list-media active --list-url
You should get updates offered as they are released by Google, the same way as you do for Mageia updates. If you have more questions just ask.

rpm -q google-chrome-stable
and it will tell you if is installed or to see information about the package with:
- Code: Select all
urmpq -i google-chrome-stable
If you do not know the exact name of the package you can search it with this command:
- Code: Select all
urpmf chrome
It will list all packages containing chrome in its filename.
I'd like to add some more context information on those. rpm -q packagename will only show you the name+version of the package that you provide as "packagename", and this only is for installed packages.
If you want information on an installed package, just use rpm -qi packagename as urpmq -i will query the available packages from the currently configured repositories, not the installed packages, and it will add multiple outputs for multiple versions of the same package.
urpmf chrome would query the available packages from the currently configured repositories for a file that has "chrome" as part of a filename in that package, so that is not what you want.
If you want to search for packages by name, either use
urpmq -y searchstring which will query the available packages from the currently configured repositories for a package that has "searchstring" in the packagename and it will also do a fuzzy search.
What I usually use when searching for package names is
urpmf -f -m --name searchstring which will query the available packages from the currently configured repositories for a package that has "searchstring" in the packagename and it will also show from which repository that package comes.
For more details please have a look at our software management MAQeia
