Upgraded to Chrome 61.0.3163 via ppa on Ubuntu 16.04 but it won't launch because NSS out of date
I upgraded to Chrome 61.0.3163 via ppa on Ubuntu 16.04 but it won't launch because NSS out of date. Launching Chrome in terminal gives:
NSS >= 3.26 is required. Please upgrade to the latest NSS, and if you still get this error, contact your distribution maintainer.
Running
sudo apt-get install libnss3
gives
libnss3 is already the newest version (2:3.21-1ubuntu4)
Should I try to get a newer version of libnss that's not in the repository? I downgraded my version of Chrome for now.
Edit:
apt-cache policy libnss3
libnss3:
Installed: 2:3.21-1ubuntu4
Candidate: 2:3.21-1ubuntu4

Solution 1:
Your computer is not running with the xenial-updates
or xenial-security
repositories enabled.
Enable the repositories (uncomment the lines for those repositories), and then run sudo apt-get update
and sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
and upgrade all your packages to the latest package versions.
Solution 2:
Your version of libnss3 seems to be broken or missing. Try reinstalling it
sudo apt-get install --reinstall libnss3
