[SOLVED] Unable to install google-chrome-stable 95 on Centos 7

Issue

I'm trying to install the latest version of google-chrome-stable 95.0.4638.54 inside a container with CentOS 7 as base image.

My Dockerfile:

FROM centos:7

LABEL maintainer="[email protected]"

ADD ./google-chrome.repo /etc/yum.repos.d/google-chrome.repo

RUN yum clean all \
    && yum -y install google-chrome-stable

The google-chrome.repo:

[google-chrome]
name=google-chrome
baseurl=http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/rpm/stable/$basearch
enabled=1
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=https://dl-ssl.google.com/linux/linux_signing_key.pub

When building the Dockerfile, I'm getting the following error:

Error: Package: google-chrome-stable-95.0.4638.54-1.x86_64 (google-chrome)
           Requires: libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.18)(64bit)

As far as I could see, CentOS 7 don't support GLIBC version 2.18 and don't intend to do it. New versions of Google Chrome will stop supporting CentOS 7? Is there a way to surpass this issue?


Solution

It looks like the problem has been solved in a later release of google-chrome-stable.
