Chrome - double installation issue

[DS-Driver]

Hi,

I tried the Porteus-Image and was very enthusiastic about...

But now a problem occurs: I have in the XFCE-Menus TWO Google-Chrome Entries. When starting CHROME there are some mistakes...

Don't know how i have created this - i deleted the chrome xzm-file, and copied a new one: the same issue....

Thank you for helping

when you have trouble with a software, tray to start it from console, type the name and enter, this can tell you if the software have a lack of deps,so you can install it

Two entries in the menu doesn't mean there are two chromes installed. It is most probably caused by the file /usr/share/applications/browser.desktop which is in all browser modules. It is used so the panel icon auto updates when you activate a different browser. It shouldn't appear in the menu as the last line in the file tells it not to.

Please try the following and report back.

As guest (not root) open a terminal and type: google- (then hit the TAB key to autofill)
Does it start? If not what is the error output?

Hello brokenman,

starting chrome from the terminal generates mutiple errors - but chrome starts without problems...

I think this is perhaps an effect of the xfce starter in the menu...

Due to some other troubles, i will reinstall the porteus system - luckily this is not so much work...

I think, i haven´t seen an other OS which is installed soo fast...

Hope after this,all went well...

Hi,

i installed fresh.

First all went well, but after installing the locales (german) the same error occurs...

So i deleted the locale xzm module and load only locales for xfce... so now chrome works - but only in english...

By the way: although choosing the libroffice locales, libreoffice is only in english...

greetings

Thanks. Just downloaded the locales and will check at next boot. Perhaps something changed between versions ... the locales were not updated for this minor release.

The link for the libreoffice locales is no longer working. I have fixed this on the server so running the language wizard should download the libreoffice locales. You can also download them manually from here:

Go for the current version.
