Please, advise chromium with the latest updates in sfs format, so that I can replace firefox in my bookwormpup64.
I tried to install chromium via apt-get, but the file selection window does not work in it
Thank you.

Re: Chromium sfs
@zedzone :-
You can find peebee's current Chromium SFS builds here:-
https://sourceforge.net/projects/lxpup/ ... /browsers/
Or, you might care to try my Puppy-'portable' build of the current Chromium release:-
https://www.mediafire.com/folder/jyfv9f ... Chromium64
Download it
Unzip it
Move the portable directory anywhere you like (but preferably OUTSIDE the 'save'; this keeps the cache from filling up the 'save'-folder)
Click to enter
Click 'LAUNCH' to fire it up
Scripts permit adding or removing a Menu entry from wherever you've located it. These portables will even run from a flash drive, so you can move it from one machine to another, if you wish...
Both the above are at 130.0.6723.91.
Mike.

You could try from a terminal ...
Code: Select all
apt install chromium

@zedzone
Please understand something that is always needed in a post.
The exact complete name of the Puppy Linux version.
The exact name of the versions ISO will be best to give.
You say BookwormPup64 but is it?
v10.0.5
v10.0.6
v10.0.7
v10.0.8
Yes it matters. All these versions are slightly different.
The things you do not tell us, are usually the clue to fixing the problem.

This is not what I expected

Read menu ->Help- ->Howto use apt package manager
It is slightly modified for Puppy Linux.
