Re: Failed to Download Repository Information - firenice03 - 03-03-2016
Remember folks - Google ended Chrome support for 32-bit linux (not just LL) on 3/1..
This has been mentioned previously.. Feel free to search for specific info..
*Thread* https://www.freecinema2022.gq/forums/on-topic/so-what-are-we-going-to-do-about-this/msg20345/#msg20345
The Google repo's will fail for and may continue to fail for 32-bit Linux OS's as Chrome is no longer supported.
The 64-bit version can be updated but at this time requires manual intervention.
I'm not one of the Dev's but I'm sure they will update the repos and all will be as it was 8)
In the meanwhile you can uncheck the offending or if your running 64-bit you can update the source.list file as mentioned previously..

This worked for me:
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"

Im using a 64bit system and installing 64bit chrome still causes problems updating.I can understand a problem with updating chrome but the computer is not being updated because of this.I dont understand why all the other updates will not function plus the package manager will not work with chrome installed.

The repo information needs updating per the many posts on various threads.
If you run the 2 commands in a terminal it will be fine.
Code:
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"The 32bit Chrome issue was well publicised
It appears however that Google changed the 64bit repo for some reason..??
I don't see this as a LL issue, but poor information from Google.
