Update on December 26, 2016: Latest Raspbian can install Chromium Browser by just doing: apt-get install chromium-browser
. No need to download debs or run gdebi. Making this post obsolete.
Installing the latest Chromium browser on Raspberry Pi B models is a hassle. Although the following tricks work on the other Raspberry Pi models. I wanted to target Raspberry Pi B+ with this tutorial since it requires some special steps.
- Download the latest .deb package files:
- Ensure you have gdebi:
1
sudo
apt-get
install
gdebi-core
- Install the packages one by one (install libgcrypt11 first!!!):
123
sudo
gdebi libgcrypt11
sudo
gdebi chromium-codecs-ffmpeg-extra
sudo
gdebi chromium-browser
- Run:
1
chromium-browser
