Chromium is the upstream project that Google Chrome browser is based on.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
As of August 2016, Chromium is now included in the Fedora Repositories.
|
|
|
|
|
If you were using the old Chromium
|
|
|
|
|
http://copr.fedoraproject.org/coprs/spot/chromium/[Copr] repository, you
|
|
|
|
|
should simply get the newer chromium as an upgrade via dnf.

Notes on Fedora Chromium
|
|
|
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Fedora's Chromium package is built to support the widevine plugin (but
|
|
|
|
|
does not include it). To enable this, copy libwidevinecdm.so and
|
|
|
|
|
libwidevinecdmadapter.so from the Google Chrome package into
|
|
|
|
|
/usr/lib64/chromium-plugins (and restart chromium). You should see
|
|
|
|
|
"Widevine Content Decryption Module" in chrome://flags.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Fedora's Chromium package does not include support for h264, mp3, or
|
|
|
|
|
aac, because of legal concerns.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* To use the PPAPI "PepperFlash" flash plugin, download it here:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/otherversions/
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Choose Linux 64-bit, FP 22.0 (or later) for other Linux 64-bit, PPAPI.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You will then have flash_player_ppapi_linux.x86_64.tar.gz. Unpack it
|
|
|
|
|
into /usr/lib64/chromium-browser/PepperFlash/. Then, restart chromium.
|
|
|
|
|
You should see Adobe Flash Player in chrome://plugins.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* To enable speech synthesis support, pass the
|
|
|
|
|
"--enable-speech-dispatcher" flag to chromium-browser.

Since Chromium is upstream for Google Chrome, all the same issues apply.
|
|
|
|
|
In addition to that, Fedora does not include Google Chrome because it is
|
|
|
|
|
a proprietary product and bundles other proprietary software such as
|
|
|
|
|
Adobe Flash plugin. However, Google does maintain a dnf|yum repository
|
|
|
|
|
for Fedora at
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
https://www.google.com/chrome/
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The link above also includes downloadable RPMs that you may use to
|
|
|
|
|
install Chrome.
