Installing Chromium on Raspberry Pi using Arch linux with pacman

I have a Raspberry Pi running: Linux 3.10.35-1-ARCH

How do I install the Chrome browser? I've tried the following:

pacman -Syyu

Further

pacman -S chromium

error: target not found: chromium

When I downloaded "google-chrome-dev" from the AUR it says:

==> ERROR: google-chrome-dev is not available for "armv6h" architecture. Note that many packages may need a line added to their PKGBUILD such as arch = ('armv6h').

I am starting to think that chrome does not exist on Arch linux. Any thought on how to install it?

You're right. The ARM version of ArchLinux only has packages for armv7.

You can try to compile it with makepkg

or packer

, but I wouldn't be surprised if it takes hours / days ...



If you want to try it, download this file to some directory and run the same path

$ makepkg

try pacman -S chromium-browser
