Where is libappindicator3.so.1?


I'm trying to install Google-Chrome on CentOS7(Linux 3.10.0-514.el7.x86_64).

The file (libappindicator3.so.1()(64bit)) is needed, but there is no such file on the https://pkgs.org/.

[leohu@SpaceX Downloads]$ rpm -ivh google-chrome-stable_current_x86_64.rpm 
warning: google-chrome-stable_current_x86_64.rpm: Header V4 DSA/SHA1 Signature, key ID 7fac5991: NOKEY
error: Failed dependencies:
    libappindicator3.so.1()(64bit) is needed by google-chrome-stable-66.0.3359.117-1.x86_64

Solution

  • Google-Chrome : The file (libappindicator3.so.1()(64bit)) is needed

    "libappindicator-gtk3" is in the EPEL repo https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL

    # yum install epel-release             (the "extras" must be enabled)
    # yum install libappindicator-gtk3
    

    If any issues, you can get the latest epel repo files = epel-release-7-11.noarch.rpm from https://mirrors.dotsrc.org/fedora-epel/7/x86_64/Packages/e/epel-release-7-11.noarch.rpm ... and do # yum install Downloads/epel-release-7-11.noarch.rpm ... ( The version in "extras" is currently epel-release-7-9.noarch ).
