Error building latest google-chrome
 
I have been using the script from /extra to build google-chrome for a long time today I am getting the following errors when I try build the latest version.

Code:
root@tabris:/home/user1/install/wrk/google-chrome$ ./google-chrome.SlackBuild
no entry data.tar.lzma in archive
lzma: (stdin): File format not recognized
tar: This does not look like a tar archive
tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors
root@tabris:/home/user1/install/wrk/google-chrome$
yes the .deb file is in the same directory as the script.

I noticed this too but never considered mentioning it as it was problematic... Just edit the decompression line in the buiodscript. To suit whatever compression format is used for the data... .tar

The slackbuild in 'current' was updated March 5th. Grab yourself a new copy.

If its still data.tar.xz (to check `ar t <pathto>/oogle-chrome-stable_current_i386.deb`) adapt the line to:

Code:
ar p $CWD/google-chrome-${RELEASE}_current_${DEBARCH}.deb data.tar.xz | xz -d | tar xv || exit 1
## Should be line 77

This took care of the problem. Thanks for the help. This is what I love (OK one of the things I love) about Slackware. You ask a question and you get help right away.

For future reference, to easily update Chrome to the latest version, you can use ruario's script. It will check to see if there is a newer one, and if so, it will download it and automatically repackage it to a Slackware package and, optionally, upgrade your installed version.
