Where can I get the official Chromium .deb package?

Solution 1:

You can simply open a terminal (CTRL+ALT+T) then type sudo apt-get install chromium-browser, press the Enter key, type your usual login password (the password will not be echoed to screen as you type, for security reasons), then hit the Enter key and this way you'll install the official build of the Chromium web browser.

My Chromium version is Version 20.0.1132.47 Ubuntu 12.04 (144678) - and I installed it using the method above.

Solution 2:

If you are looking for a .deb (not snap) package for Ubuntu 20.04+

You can download latest official .deb build for Ubuntu 20.04 LTS (Focal), 21.04 (Hirsute) and 21.10 (Impish) here: https://launchpad.net/~phd/+archive/ubuntu/chromium-browser/

This is a PPA repository with official Ubuntu packages released originally for Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (Bionic) and updated as soon as a new version is released.

Solution 3:

Open terminal and Type following commands to install Chromium .

sudo add-apt-key ppa:chromium-daily/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install chromium-browser

If you want to get Chrome browser you can get .deb package here.

Solution 4:

This answer is no longer valid, the PPA is not up-to-date. Just follow Clive's answer above, it was always the better choice anyway

Chromium 20 is indeed in the official repositories. You can download it through terminal (see other answer) or through the software center. Adding a separate PPA for version 20 is unnecessary.

If you want the most updated stable release (or daily builds for that matter), however, you should add a PPA. I did so and am currently using version 22.

For the latest stable version, go to Terminal and type:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:a-v-shkop/chromium
sudo apt-get update

If you haven't installed Chromium yet, also run sudo apt-get install chromium-browser
