The chromium project releases their updates for Ubuntu users thru a PPA, but Canonical also distributes stable packages. A mix that is working really well.
God forbid #2, a system-wide system for downloading and updating applications is one of the zen-things about using the Linux-based OS's.
How it works on Mac OS X and is chaotical, and the way Microsoft does it, with countless messy installers and self-updating apps is hell to deal with.
- aristidb 14y agoWell, Steam is by necessity an independent package manager. So you can't really have that Zen if you want to use it. Might as well update itself, too. ;)
- pinkbucket 14y agoThat old ye problem of how to deal with package managers dealing with package managers.
- obtu 14y agoTo pinkbucket: you seem to have been hell-banned when your account was new. You will need a new account. My condolences.
