Unable to install Google Chrome dependency error libnss3-1d / libxss1 in Ubuntu 13.04 / 12.10 / 12.04

Updated by on Apr 29, 2013 in Error | 2 comments

While installing google chrome stable from debian package, you might face dependency error. To avoid this dependency error, Install Google Chrome in Ubuntu using PPA

“”" dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of google-chrome-stable:

google-chrome-stable depends on libnss3-1d (>= 3.12.3); however:

and

google-chrome-stable depends on libxss1; however:

dpkg: error processing google-chrome-stable (–install): “”"

Check the screen shot below.

To Solve

Install the dependency libraries by using the following commands on terminal, type the password for the user when prompted.

NOTE: To avoid mistakes copy and paste the commands in terminal, because “l” is looks like “1″ in below commands.

For libnss3-1d

sudo apt-get install libnss3-1d:i386

For libxss1

sudo apt-get install libxss1:i386

After installing the dependencies try re-installing the google chrome stable. It will work.

Hope this will be helpful for you!!!

    You might want to run ‘apt-get -f install’ to correct these:
    The following packages have unmet dependencies:
    google-chrome-stable : Depends: libxss1 but it is not going to be installed
    E: Unmet dependencies. Try ‘apt-get -f install’ with no packages (or specify a solution).

    @ambrose
    Open Terminal and run sudo apt-get -f install

    After that just install Chrome as a standard .deb file.

    Hope all works! :)
