Linux: How To Fix Failed to fetch http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/dists/stable/Release : chrome

Posted . Visible to the public.

Chrome has discontinued support for 32-Bit Linux builds and this might break your apt-get update.

To fix this, you need to update your APT source. This command does that automagically for you:

sudo sed -i -e 's/deb http/deb [arch=amd64] http/' "/etc/apt/sources.list.d/google-chrome.list"

Note that if you are using a 32-bit Linux, you will no longer receive Chrome security updates and should switch to a different browser (maybe Chromium).
