Don't worry about it. Easily fixed.

Just finish (say yes)
# apt-get -f install

That will remove the partially installed google-chrome

Then remove the package you originally installed from the /opt directory
(the installer will still be sitting there)

Make sure you have both backports and the google-chrome repository
listed in /etc/apt/sources.list or somewhere in /etc/apt/sources.list/*.list

Update the apt database
# apt-get update

Now install the latest google-chrome stable *and* it's dependancies:-
# apt-get install google-chrome-stable
(say yes)

Let us know if you have any problems after that.



Kind regards

This is what I get:
