#! /bin/bash
# Google Chrome Installer/Uninstaller for 64-bit RHEL/CentOS 6 or 7
# (C) Richard K. Lloyd 2017 <rklloyd@gmail.com>
# See https://chrome.richardlloyd.org.uk/ for further details.
# Barring bug fixes, this is the final version of the script!
# Google Chrome 59+ will *not* work on RHEL/CentOS 6, so users
# on that platform should not upgrade beyond version 58.
# This script is in the public domain and has no warranty.
# It needs to be run as root because it installs/uninstalls RPMs.
# Minimum system requirements:
# - 64-bit RHEL/CentOS 6.6 or later (32-bit is no longer supported)
# (any 64-bit RHEL/CentOS 7 version is supported)
# - Minimum RHEL/CentOS 6 kernel version supported is 2.6.32-431.el6
# (any RHEL/CentOS 7 kernel version is supported)
# - At least 250MB free in each of the temporary directory, /opt and /root
# - A working yum system (including http proxy configured if needed)
# - http_proxy and https_proxy env vars set if you are using an http proxy
# - Google Chrome should not be running at the same time as this script

cat <<@EOF
Syntax: ./install_chrome.sh [-b] [-d] [-f [-f [-f]]] [-h] [-n] [-q] [-r] [-s]
[-t tmpdir] [-u] [-U]
-b (or --beta) will switch to beta versions (google-chrome-beta).
-d (or --delete) will delete the temporary directory used for downloads
if an installation was successful.
-f (or --force) forces an automatic "y" for any interactive prompting
except for OS mismatch/OS upgrade/reboot prompts. Specify -f twice to force
it for OS mismatches or OS upgrades as well and three times for reboots
on top of that.
-h (or -? or --help) will display this syntax message.
-n (or --dryrun) will show what actions the script will take,
but it won't actually perform those actions.
-q (or --quiet) will switch to "quiet mode" where minimal info is displayed.
Specify -q twice to go completely silent except for errors.
-r (or --re-run) indicates the script is being re-run after an upgrade
(internal use only - do not use -r during an initial run of the script).
-s (or --stable) will switch to stable versions (google-chrome-stable),
which is the default if -b or -U haven't previously been specified.
-t tmpdir (or --tmpdir tmpdir) will use tmpdir as the temporary directory
parent tree rather than \$TMPDIR (if set) or /tmp.
-u performs an uninstallation of Google Chrome and chrome-deps-* rather the
default action of an installation.
-U (or --unstable) will switch to unstable versions (google-chrome-unstable).

# Current version of this script
version="8.00"
# This script will download/install the following for an installation:
# These RHEL/CentOS 6 RPMs and their (many!) deps that aren't already installed
# or are out-of-date:
# redhat-lsb, wget, xdg-utils, GConf2, libXScrnSaver, libX11, gnome-keyring,
# gcc, glibc-devel, nss, rpm-build, libexif, dbus, selinux-policy, xz
# and rpmdevtools.
# These RHEL/CentOS 7 RPMs and their (many!) deps that aren't already installed
# or are out-of-date:
# redhat-lsb, wget, xdg-utils, GConf2, libXscrnSaver. libX11, gnome-keyring,
# libexif, dbus, nss, selinux-policy and xz.
# The latest Google Chrome RPM if not already downloaded (or out-of-date).
# RHEL/CentOS 6 only: libstdc++ library from a gcc 6.2.0 source build.
# For RHEL/CentOS 6 only:
# It then copies the downloaded libstdc++ library into /opt/google/chrome*/lib.
# Next, it C-compiles a shared library that provides the "missing"
# gnome_keyring_attribute_list_new function that's installed as
# /opt/google/chrome*/lib/libgnome-keyring.so.0 and linked against a
# newly installed soft-link called
# /opt/google/chrome*/lib/link-to-libgmome-keyring.so.0 which in turn points
# to the system copy of libgmome-keyring.so.0.
# Finally, it creates and installs a chrome-deps-* RPM which includes the
# downloaded libstdc++ library, libgnome-keyring.so.0, the soft-link
# link-to-libgmome-keyring.so.0 and code to modify the
# google-chrome wrapper. (End of RHEL/CentOS 6 only actions)
# Note that you can't run Google Chrome as root - it stops you from doing so.
# Revision history:
# 8.00 - 4th May 2017
# - Barring bug fixes, this is the final release of the script because
# Google Chrome 59+ will no longer work on RHEL/CentOS 6.
# - Changed all 2016 references to 2017.
# - Moved to gcc 7.1.0 for libstdc++ and bumped chrome-deps version
# to 4.00 because of that.
# - If Google Chrome 58 is installed on RHEL/CentOS 6, warn that it's the
# last major release that works on RHEL/CentOS 6 and that it will be an
# increasing security risk to run it in the long term.
# - If version 59+ of Google Chrome is downloadable/installable on RHEL/CentOS 6,
# refuse to download/install it and delete the Chrome repo file to
# prevent "yum update" downloading it.
# 7.51 - 22nd December 2016
# - Superuser now required to run cleanup code in error() function.
# - A checksum and size has been added to version.dat and this is checked
# (against the uncompressed version) when an upgraded script is downloaded.
# - A new gcc 6.3.0 release meant a fresh build of the libstdc++ library
# and a version bump of the chrome-deps RPM.
# 7.50 - 26th August 2016
# - If the script is upgraded and re-run, pass a new -r option to avoid a
# second upgrade, which might have otherwise happened (yes, in a
# never-ending loop) if the downloaded version.dat file was a cached copy.
# - xz is now installed/updated early on (prior to any wget-based downloads).
# - Upgrades now download/decompress install_chrome.sh.xz, only falling
# back to the uncompressed download if that fails.
# - Use gcc 6.2.0 as the basis for libstdc++.so.
# - Web site is now 100% SSL (http requests redirect to the equivalent https),
# thanks to a new auto-renewing Let's Encrypt secure cert.
# 7.40 - 15th May 2016
# - If wget isn't installed (e.g. it's a minimal CentOS 6 install) or it's
# out-of-date, download and install it.
# - dbus and selinux-policy (if SELinux is enabled) dependencies have been
# added, which may help minimal installs.
# - If dbus isn't running on CentOS 6, it's now started and also enabled via
# chkconfig for future reboots.
# - If any of the main dependencies are out-of-date, they will now be updated
# (this is particularly critical for nss and selinux-policy, which won't work
# on an unpatched 6.7 install).
# 7.31 - 29th April 2016
# - The Google Chrome binary seems to dynamically load libexif.so.12 at
# runtime which caused me to miss libexif off the dependencies list, so
# it's finally been added in.
# - gcc 6.1.0 is now used as the basis for the libstdc++ download, so that
# meant a new size and checksum as usual.
# 7.30 - 5th March 2016
# - Google have completely pulled the 32-bit Linux Google Chrome repository,
# so I've matched this by dropping 32-bit support (I don't understand
# why anyone would ever install 32-bit RHEL/CentOS, but that's just me :-) ).
# - An out-of-date kernel is always an error now rather than a warning.
# 7.24 - 13th February 2016
# - Adjusted year references to be 2016.
# - Finally removed all references to LD_PRELOAD.
# - Warn that this script's 32-bit support is deprecated and will be
# removed in a future release (shortly after Google Chrome drops 32-bit).
# - CentoS 7.2.1511 is on the mirrors, so grab 32-bit libstdc++ from that
# and switch the fallback to the 7.1.1503 version.
# 7.23 - 15th December 2015
# - Increased version of chrome-deps package to 3.12 because of the newer
# libstdc++ in the previous release (yes, I should have done that with 7.22).
# - wget now ignores cached files (e.g. from proxies) when downloading.
# - If your running kernel is older than 2.6.32-431.el6 and you either refuse
# (or fail) to update it when prompted or refuse to reboot after the latest
# kernel update, then this is now a fatal error rather than a warning.
# - On an unrelated note (the company I work for hosts the official site),
# good luck to Tim Peake/Principia today - see https://principia.org.uk/
# 7.22 - 12th December 2015
# - The gcc 5.3.0-built version of 64-bit libstdc++.so.6 is now downloaded,
# triggering a new script release.
# - RHEL/CentOS 6.6 is now the mandatory minimum 6.X release this script will
# run on. If you don't upgrade to at least 6.6 when prompted, the script
# will abort (previous releases let you continue with a warning).
#
# 7.21 - 23rd July 2015
# - gcc 5.2.0 was recently released, so the downloadable 64-bit libstdc++.so.6
# was rebuilt using it. A new checksum/size for the library meant a new
# script release.
# 7.20 - 7th June 2015
# - Warn about out-of-date kernels that will cause Google Chrome to crash
# and offer to update the kernel (and preferably reboot).
# - Fixed a yum repo path typo shown during a dry run (-n) (reported by John
# Stembridge).
# - Don't try to create a spec file if the dry run option -n is specified
# (also reported by John Stembridge).
# - Removed remove_redundant_libs() function - ironically, it's now redundant.
# 7.13 - 24th April 2015
# - Updated the downloadable 64-bit libstdc++.so.6 to one built from gcc 5.1.0.
# Sadly, the uncompressed library has bloated to being 60% bigger than the
# one created from gcc 4.9.2 :-(
# 7.12 - 10th April 2015
# - CentOS 7.0.1406 got abruptly shunted off to vault.centos.org this week,
# promptly completely breaking the 32-bit libstdc++ RPM download. Now the
# download looks at latest 7.1.1503 RPM on mirror.centos.org first and if
# that gets moved (which it eventually will be when 7.2 comes out), it looks
# at the latest 7.0.1406 update on vault.centos.org as a fallback.
# 7.11 - 23rd February 2015
# - Added a Provides: link to the spec file to avoid RPM dependency issues
# with the soft-link (thanks to Raymond Page for spotting the issue) and
# bumped chrome-deps-* RPM version to 3.11.
# 7.10 - 6th February 2015
# - The later libstdc++ works fine with LD_LIBRARY_PATH pointing to it when
# sub-processes are run, so we can finally stop using LD_PRELOAD and the
# unset_var.so shared library.
# - We still need the "missing" gnome_keyring_attribute_list_new function
# that's in later releases of libgnome-keyring.so.0, so build a library
# using that name with the function in it, but link it against a soft-link
# (link-to-libgnome-keyring.so.0 which soft-links to the system-installed
# copy of libgnome-keyring.so.0). Convoluted, but allows us to bring in
# both gnome_keyring_attribute_list_new and all the other library functions/
# symbols in at start-up.
# - Added gnome-keyring as a dependency just to make sure it's there before
# we go ahead with the machinations above.
# - 50% reduction in orphaned kitten-killing tendencies.
# 7.00 - 2nd February 2015
# - Raise minimum RHEL/CentOS 6 version required from 6.5 to 6.6. This is
# because 6.6 now has library updates that negate the need to install patched
# versions from Fedora 15 or 17.
# - The only external library that has to remain is libstdc++, which provides
# the appropriate runtime symbols to satisfy the Google Chrome binary. The
# good news is that it no longer needs to be patched. For 64-bit systems,
# the libstdc++ is lifted by me from a gcc 4.9.2 source build I did.
# For 32-bit systems, libstdc++ is extracted from the CentOS 7 libstdc++ RPM.
# - If the updated CentOS 7 libstdc++ 32-bit RPM goes "missing" (e.g. it is
# removed because of an even newer update), fall back to the
# original 32-bit libstdc++ RPM that shipped with the initial CentOS 7 release.
# I will release a new script version if a libstdc++ (or gcc source) update
# happens of course.
# - Remove any unneeded /opt/google/chrome*/lib libraries that are probably
# hanging around from earlier script releases. For the avoidance of
# doubt, this includes removing the F15 libc library, thus removing the
# GHOST vulnerability that previous script releases may have had.
# - Use %_topdir for RPM build dir location (thanks to Bob Hepple for this)
# - Changed year to 2015 in a few places.
# - Now kills less orphaned kittens than ever!
# 6.10 - 29th August 2014
# - Don't permanently run 2 copies of cat from the google-chrome script
# (this is a horrible kludge intro'ed by Google Chrome 37). They both
# crashed with the previous (6.00) install_chrome.sh, so now just redirect
# stdout and stderr to /dev/null instead (OK, it'll hide console messages/
# errors, but that's better than 2 core dumps or, indeed, running 2 cats).
# - Added "Obsoletes: chrome-deps" to the RPM spec file (suggested by a
# couple of users).
# - Bumped both wrapper_mod_version and the chrome-deps RPM to version 2.10.
# 6.00 - 27th July 2014
# - Google Chrome 36 onwards now has separate install trees for each
# RPM type (stable, beta, unstable), but bizarrely all 3 RPMs include an
# /usr/bin/google-chrome soft-link, preventing simultaneous installation.
# Code was duly added to deal with this significant change.
# - Added PackageKit as a dependency (some live CentOS DVDs don't install it).
# - Removed the last remnants of the custom CentOS 7 repo code.
# - Used a soft-link to fix a failed grep of google-chrome.desktop during the
# installation of the beta or unstable RPM (this is a Google bug, not mine).
# - wrapper_mod_version changed to 2.00 and code added to scan for
# all 3 RPM types since the defaults for all 3 of them are dubiously
# stuck in a single /etc/default/google-chrome file.
# - Bumped chrome-deps-* version to 2.00 because check for google-chrome*
# binary path was widened and the RPM name has changed to include
# stable, beta or unstable as appropriate.
# - If an old "chrome-deps" RPM is present during (un)installation, remove it.
# 5.02 - 10th July 2014
# - Now CentOS 7 final is out, remove the pre-release repo code and
# delete the .repo file if it was created. Refusing to upgrade the OS to
# 6.5 or later will now terminate the script rather than continue with a
# warning. Changed all equivalent RHEL and CentOS references to be
# RHEL/CentOS instead.
# 5.01 - 26th June 2014
# - Fix for latest CentOS 7 pre-release repo detection, because the latest
# pre-release bizarrely includes placeholder .repo files that don't do
# anything.
# 5.00 - 21st June 2014
# - Added support for pre-release CentOS 7, which mainly means no RPM building
# and also the installation of missing dependencies. If no CentOS 7 repos are
# detected - which is the current case with pre-release CentOS 7 versions -
# in /etc/yum.repos.d, a "chrome-deps-updates" repo will be created (this
# will be removed on later runs if any other .repo files are created, on the
# assumption that the user has added their own repos for installing/updating
# RPMs instead or the final CentOS 7 repos are already present).
# - Minimum RHEL/CentOS 6 release supported is now 6.5, which has been out for
# over 6 months at the time of writing. This means libX11 and nss should be
# up-to-date versions, avoiding run-time problems with older versions of
# those packages.
# - Tidied up final messages e.g. it now says the latest version was already
# installed if that was the case.
#
# 4.70 - 17th May 2014
# - Added -f option to auto-force a "y" answer to any interactive prompt
# without bothering to actually prompt you (thanks to Steve Cleveland for the
# idea). The only exceptions to this are the prompts for an OS mismatch, OS
# upgrade or reboot, but even those can be forced by specifying -f twice (or
# three times for reboots).
# - Fixed the 2-hourly bash segfault recorded in syslog. It was caused by the
# chrome binary self-calling the google-chrome bash script to get its version,
# which is bizarre since surely it could just call one of its own functions
# to get that? By unsetting LD_LIBRARY_PATH on the self-call, the segfault
# was avoided. Bumped chrome-deps to version 1.21 because of this.
# 4.60 - 12th April 2014
# - The latest Google Chrome releases kept prompting me for a keyring
# password when starting up. It turns out they were using the
# gnome_keyring_attribute_list_new function, which didn't exist until Fedora
# 17's libgnome-keyring.so.0 library! Luckily, the F17 library works in
# RHEL/CentOS 6, so that's been added and the chrome-deps RPM has been
# bumped to version 1.20.
# - Added nss to the list of possible RHEL/CentOS 6 RPMs that are installed
# (thanks to Ravi Saive at tecmint.com for this, though no-one told me
# directly...).
# - Check the size and cksum of downloaded RPMs and delete them (and quit) if
# they are bad.
# 4.50 - 11th December 2013
# - A user reported that file-roller wouldn't work when opening downloaded
# .tar.gz files inside Google Chrome. It turns out LD_PRELOAD was still set
# when file-roller tried to exec() sub-processes like gzip, so I now unset
# LD_PRELOAD (as well as LD_LIBRARY_PATH) when exec'ing from within Google
# Chrome, which fixes the issue. chrome-deps version was bumped to 1.10
# because of this change. Another user suggested checking previously
# downloaded F15 RPMs have the right checksum/size (and a fresh download is
# forced if they don't), which has been implemented.
# 4.41 - 9th December 2013
# - Added glibc-devel to the list of dependencies because a user reported
# that it wasn't dragged in by gcc. With the imminent release of Fedora 20,
# Fedora 15 has been archived and the code has been changed to reflect that.
# Removed SELinux warning at end of install - the last few releases of
# Google Chrome don't seem to have a problem with enforcing mode w.r.t.
# nacl_helper. Future releases of this script may remove all SELinux-related
# code if enforcing mode remains OK. Google Chrome 31 is displaying a
# manifestTypes error to the console in some setups, but this doesn't seem
# to affect the running of Google Chrome.
# 4.40 - 5th October 2013
# - A similar issue to the 4.30 release cropped up again (reported by
# the same user!) that I still can't reproduce. This time it was a missing
# gdk_pixbuf_format_get_type symbol in F15's libgtk-x11-2.0. This was fixed
# by additionally downloading F15's gdk-pixbuf2 RPM and extracting
# libgdk_pixbuf-2.0 from it. This prompted a bump of the chrome-deps RPM to
# version 1.03.
# 4.30 - 4th October 2013
# - The g_desktop_app_info_get_filename symbol in the F15 libgdk-x11-2.0
# library is present in the F15 libgio-2.0 library (but not in RHEL/CentOS's).
# The script used the former library, but not the latter and a user reported
# a missing symbol crash due to this, despite my testing not showing the
# issue. This release is therefore purely to add libgio-2.0 and its
# libgobject-2.0 dependency to the set of extracted F15 libraries and has
# also been tested against Google Chrome 30 and Google Talk Plugin 4.7.0.0.
# The chrome-deps RPM is now at version 1.02 because of the two extra
# libraries.
# 4.20 - 22nd August 2013
# - If the Google Chrome repo is enabled and a Google Chrome RPM is already
# installed, use "yum check-update google-chrome-stable" to determine if
# there is a newer version available and then fallback to using the
# OmahaProxy site if there isn't.
# - Any newer version than what's been previously downloaded or installed
# can now be downloaded/installed, rather than being exactly the version
# displayed on the OmahaProxy site (which was out of date for a full day when
# Chrome 29 was released, stopping this script from updating to version 29).
# - Removed terminal messages warning because this is fixed with Google Chrome
# 29.
# - Used extra parameters in the OmahaProxy request to narrow the data down to
# the exact channel and platform (linux).
# 4.10 - 8th August 2013
# - Fixed Google Talk (Hangouts) plugin crash - it was because, unlike Google
# Chrome itself, the plugin hasn't been built with later libraries, so it
# needs LD_LIBRARY_PATH to be unset. There still appears to be other
# library issues with the Hangouts plugin, mainly because the older libraries
# don't implement certain calls it uses. Google need to update the plugin!
# Bumped chrome-deps version to 1.01 because of the unset_var.c change.
# - Catered for non-standard i686 RPM build trees on 32-bit systems. I couldn't
# reproduce this myself (it uses i386 for me all the time in RHEL/CentOS and
# Scientific Linux 32-bit VMs) but the code is in place anyway for the users
# that reported the issue.
# - modify_wrapper (now bumped to version 1.01) no longer echoes anything to
# stdout after a successful update of /opt/google/chrome/google-chrome.
# 4.01 - 30th July 2013
# - Emergency 2-char change fix due to a terrible spec parsing bug in rpmbuild.
# It appears that it tries to parse % directives in comment lines.
# Strangely, three different build envs of mine didn't have the bug, but
# a fourth one I tried did.
#
# 4.00 - 30th July 2013
# - Creates a new chrome-deps RPM that it installs alongside the
# google-chrome-stable RPM. It contains the Fedora libraries, the
# built unset_var.so library and a script which is run post-install
# to add code to /etc/default/google-chrome to modify google-chrome if
# its LD_PRELOAD addition isn't present. This gets sourced daily by
# /etc/cron.daily/google-chrome and is a way to auto-modify google-chrome
# within a day of a Google Chrome update (this is because google-chrome
# isn't marked as a config file by Google Chrome's spec file, so updates
# will overwrite any changes made to it). The new code will also enable the
# Google Chrome repo of course. Many thanks to Marcus Sandberg
# for his spec file at https://github.com/adamel/chrome-deps which
# I used as the initial basis for the spec file I create.
# - Adjusted unset_var code to not unset LD_LIBRARY_PATH if a full file
# path (i.e. one containing a slash) is supplied to exec*() routines.
# - Download/installation of google-chrome-stable/chrome-deps dependencies
# is now prompted for (if you decline, the script aborts).
# - Moved out-of-date OS check right to the end of the script and it also
# now offers to reboot the machine after a successful OS update. Warn user
# not to run Google Chrome if either the OS update or reboot are declined
# until they complete the OS update and reboot.
# - Don't remove /etc/cron.daily/google-chrome or
# /etc/yum.repos.d/google-chrome.repo any more because we actually want
# people to use those (they won't be happy cron'ing this script or having
# to regularly run it manually to check for updates).
# - Added -t option to specify the temporary directory parent tree.
# - Added -s (stable), -b (beta) and -U (unstable) options to switch
# release channels. Yes, it remembers the switch, so you only have to
# specify once time.
# - Added libdl.so.2 to the Fedora library list (for unset_var.so).
# 3.20 - 27th July 2013
# - Initial attempt to stop helper apps crashing by wrapping exec*() routines
# with LD_PRELOAD functions that save/blank LD_LIBRARY_PATH, call the
# original routines and, if they return, restore LD_LIBRARY_PATH. Seems to
# stop crashes previously logged to syslog on startup at least, but does
# require gcc and its dependencies to be installed now of course.
# 3.11 - 25th July 2013
# - If SELinux is enabled, set appropriate SELinux contexts on Fedora libraries
# in /opt/google/chrome/lib and that directory itself. Investigation shows
# that if you enable SELinux and set it to enforcing, nacl_helper appears to
# fail to start correctly, possibly disabling sandboxing. The script warns
# about this and suggests a temporary workaround of setting
# SELINUX=permissive in /etc/selinux/config and rebooting. It's hoped to fix
# this SELinux issue more permanently in a future release soon (any help is
# most welcome!).
# 3.10 - 24th July 2013
# - Use .so.0 extension (instead of .so.3) for renamed Fedora ld-linux library
# and change ld-linux*.so.2 references to ld-linux*.so.0 in ld-linux, libc
# and libstdc++. Thanks to Marcus Sundberg for this suggestion.
# - Dependency list for Google Chrome RPM is now redhat-lsb, wget, xdg-utils,
# GConf2, libXScrnSaver and libX11 (not 1.3* or 1.4* though).
# - If OS version ("lsb_release -rs") is less than 6.4 then
# offer to "yum update" and refuse to continue if the user declines.
# If you don't update to at least 6.4, bad things can
# happen (I got a hang and a memory allocation error when starting Google
# Chrome on a RHEL/CentOS 6.0 VM for example).
# 3.00 - 21st July 2013
# - Command-line options now supported including -d (delete temp dir),
# -h (syntax help), -n (dry run), -q (quiet) and -u (uninstall).
# - Abort if Google Chrome is running when the script is started.
# - Display any non-zero disk space figures for /opt/google/chrome and the
# temporary download directory at the start and end of the script.
# 2.10 - 20th July 2013
# - Can now detect if Fedora 15 RPMs have been archived and will download
# them from the archive site if they're found there instead.
# - Fixed lsb package check, so lsb deps will actually be downloaded now.
# - Follow Fedora 15 library soft-links to determine the actual filenames
# that need to be copied.
# - Removed /etc/cron.daily/google-chrome and
# /etc/yum.repos.d/google-chrome.repo straight after the Google Chrome RPM
# is installed to avoid any potential conflict with old releases.
# - Simplistic check for RHEL/CentOS 6 derivatives (initially a prompt if the
# script thinks you aren't running one, but a future release will block
# non-derivatives).
# - Early exits due to errors or an interrupt (CTRL-C) will now properly
# tidy up files in the temporary directory and uninstall the Google Chrome
# RPM if it was installed.
# - All downloads now go via a common function, which saves any pre-existing
# file as a .old version and renames it back if the download fails.
# 2.00 - 14th July 2013
# - Installed a 32-bit RHEL/CentOS 6.4 VM and this enabled me to add initial
# 32-bit support, though there is an nacl_helper issue that I display a warning
# for. Thanks to Seva Epsteyn for a 32-bit patch that got the ball rolling.
# - Check for version number of latest Google Chrome and download/install it
# if it hasn't been already.
# - Use updated Fedora 15 RPMs rather than the original ISO versions.
# - Warn if an enabled Google Chrome repo is detected (we don't want it).
# - Tidied main code into separate functions.
# - Added blank lines before/after messages and prefixed them with three stars.
# - Displayed more messages now they're easier to read.
# 1.10 - 13th July 2013
# - Added an update check for a new version of this script.
# It will always download/install the new version, but will ask
# if you want to run the new version or exit in case you want to
# code inspect it first.
# - Always force-install a downloaded Google RPM, even if a version
# is already installed. Yes, very obvious it should do this but it
# didn't (slaps forehead).
# 1.02 - 13th July 2013
# - Second emergency fix today as someone spotted that wget needed
# "--no-check-certificate" to talk to Google's https download site.
# I didn't need it for the two machines I tested it on though!
# - Added in a check for wget as well while I was at it and it will
# yum install wget if it's not found.
# 1.01 - 13th July 2013
# - Bad variable fix if you've not downloaded Google Chrome's RPM yet.
# Serves me right for making a last minute change and not testing it :-(
# 1.00 - 13th July 2013
# - Tested on 64-bit RHEL/CentOS 6.4 using Fedora 15 libraries. Code is there
# for 32-bit but has not been tested at all because I have no such systems.

This is script backup from https://chrome.richardlloyd.org.uk/

The end of the road

Google Chrome 59 has been released and this does not work on RHEL/CentOS 6 because it has switched (like Mozilla Firefox already has) to using GTK+3, which isn't available on RHEL/CentOS 6.

In fact, if you're still on RHEL/CentOS 6, you really should uninstall Google Chrome from your system now - the script is now effectively useless for you and will not download the latest Google Chrome. Running Google Chrome 58 is now considered a security risk (30 security bugs were fixed in version 59) and the script only remains available for download because it still works as usual on RHEL/CentOS 7.

A (possibly) final version of the script has been released that prevents upgrades beyond Google Chrome 58 on RHEL/CentOS 6 (with a warning that it's a security risk to keep running that release). As an alternative, you can "yum install firefox" to install the latest Mozilla Firefox ESR release (Red Hat have indeed backported it to GTK+2), but this can mean running a browser up to a year out of date w.r.t. features.
The site will shutdown later this year

There isn't much point to this site any more - RHEL/CentOS 6 users can't use the script to install Google Chrome and RHEL/CentOS 7 users can just download the latest Google Chrome RPM and then run "yum install google-chrome-stable_current_x86_64.rpm" as root. Hence, this site will shutdown later this year (one month's notice will be given). It may be resurrected if RHEL/CentOS 7 can't run Google Chrome out of the box in the future, but that could be years away.
The download (RHEL/CentOS 7 only)

It's strongly recommended that you run "yum update" as root (and reboot if this installs a new kernel) before you download and run the script below. This will often fix previously known issues when running Google Chrome.

install_chrome.sh 8.00 (4th May 2017 - final version, gcc 7.1.0 used for libstdc++, don't download Google Chrome 59+ on RHEL/CentOS 6)

It's a bash shell script, so you download and run it as root as follows:

wget https://chrome.richardlloyd.org.uk/install_chrome.sh
chmod u+x install_chrome.sh
./install_chrome.sh

The script has optional command line arguments - here's the output of "./install_chrome.sh -h":

Syntax: ./install_chrome.sh [-b] [-d] [-f [-f [-f]]] [-h] [-n] [-q] [-r] [-s]
[-t tmpdir] [-u] [-U]

-b (or --beta) will switch to beta versions (google-chrome-beta).
-d (or --delete) will delete the temporary directory used for downloads
if an installation was successful.
-f (or --force) forces an automatic "y" for any interactive prompting
except for OS mismatch/OS upgrade/reboot prompts. Specify -f twice to force
it for OS mismatches or OS upgrades as well and three times for reboots
on top of that.
-h (or -? or --help) will display this syntax message.
-n (or --dryrun) will show what actions the script will take,
but it won't actually perform those actions.
-q (or --quiet) will switch to "quiet mode" where minimal info is displayed.
Specify -q twice to go completely silent except for errors.
-r (or --re-run) indicates the script is being re-run after an upgrade
(internal use only - do not use -r during an initial run of the script).
-s (or --stable) will switch to stable versions (google-chrome-stable),
which is the default if -b or -U haven't previously been specified.
-t tmpdir (or --tmpdir tmpdir) will use tmpdir as the temporary directory
parent tree rather than $TMPDIR (if set) or /tmp.
-u performs an uninstallation of Google Chrome and chrome-deps rather the
default action of an installation.
-U (or --unstable) will switch to unstable versions (google-chrome-unstable).

I would recommend you read the comments at the top of the script and inspect the code carefully since you need to run it as root. It will perform a fair number of downloads to obtain what it needs and if it finishes successfully, you should be able to run the "google-chrome" command (or select it from the Internet category in your GNOME main menu) as a non-root user.
The changelog

Version 8.00 (4th May 2017):
Final (bug fixes notwithstanding) release of the script. 2016 references finally changed to 2017 and we're using the freshly baked gcc 7.1.0 for libstdc++ now. Warn that it's the last major release that works on RHEL/CentOS 6 if Google Chrome 58 is installed. Refuse to install Google Chrome 59+ on RHEL/CentOS 6 (and delete repo file(s) if 59+ is available to avoid "yum update" breaking things).

The feedback

Any bugs, fixes, improvements or suggestions should be fed back to me, Richard K. Lloyd, at rklloyd@gmail.com but please note there is no warranty on this product whatsoever and the script itself is in the public domain. Bemusingly, one ultimate feedback was a tutorial video someone uploaded to YouTube!
