Chrome 32-bit on Linux discontinued - Fix for the repo

The Chrome Browser source list is probably giving you the error:

Code:
"Failed to fetch http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/dists/stable/Release"

Unable to find expected entry 'main/binary-i386/Packages' in Release file (Wrong sources.list entry or malformed file) Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead."

This is due to the 32-Bit Chrome builds being discontinued.

If you are using Pinguy OS x64 enter this into the command line:

Code:
sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list.d/google-chrome.list

And place [arch=amd64] after deb but before http so the line looks like this:

Code:
deb [arch=amd64] http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/ stable main

If you are running Pinguy OS 32-bit it is advised to uninstall Chrome if you have it installed and remove the google-chrome.list from the repo.

Code:
sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/google-chrome.list

As the Chrome browser will no longer get security updates for the 32-bit version it is unwise to keep using if you are not running the 64-bit system.
