i.e. lots of "not found"s which weren't there before. This is 32-bit
Chrome on F12 64-bit and had been working up till now. Note that the
alledgedly missing libraries are present, e.g.:

$ ls -l /opt/google/chrome/libnspr4.so.0d
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 16 2010-02-13 12:53 /opt/google/chrome/libnspr4.so.0d -> /lib/libnspr4.so
[poc at bree:~] ls -l /lib/libnspr4.so
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 240476 2009-10-13 15:35 /lib/libnspr4.so
[poc at bree:~] file /lib/libnspr4.so
/lib/libnspr4.so: ELF 32-bit LSB shared object, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked, stripped

Prefixing a LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/google/chrome doesn't make any
difference. Neither does running ldconfig, nor rebooting.

Any ideas?

$ ldd /opt/google/chrome/chrome
/opt/google/chrome/chrome: /lib/libz.so.1: no version information available (required by /opt/google/chrome/chrome)

etc.

The failing version (which refused even to start) was from the
google-chrome repo. When I downloaded another copy directly from Google
I got a different result (though both rpms show the same version
number). Now the browser seems to work, though I get these console
messages:

$ google-chrome
/usr/bin/google-chrome: /lib64/libz.so.1: no version information available (required by /usr/bin/google-chrome)
/opt/google/chrome/chrome: /lib64/libz.so.1: no version information available (required by /opt/google/chrome/chrome)

/proc/self/exe: /lib64/libz.so.1: no version information available (required by /proc/self/exe)

However I see that this version is 64-bit (the repo version was 32-bit).
The repo URL is baseurl=http://dl.google.com/linux/rpm/stable/x86_64,
IOW it looks like someone put the 32-bit version in place of the 64-bit
one.

That's probably the root cause. Sorry for wasting everyone's time.

Likewise I am using 32 bit with no problems - I set up the google repo
and installed as google-chrome-beta from the repo and it set up an
appropriate repo file to update itself when necessary - the OP did not
say how he installed or updated, nor whether he is using a beta or
devel version?

As I did say, I dl'ed from the official Google repo, which currently
distributes a Beta. However the update (*from the 64-bit repo* was a
32-bit executable, which is why it failed, i.e. it was misfiled by
whoever maintains these things.

As I also said, the 64-bit version downloaded directly from Google's
page did work correctly.

Sorry - to be more clear - i yum updated the beta and it stayed a
workign 64 bit version.

Tried it again and it worked.

Now I realize what happened. I was actually using the 32-bit version in
order to get Java to work, so the update pulled in a new 32-bit version.
Apologies again, must engage brain. Especially apologies for accusing
the repo maintainer for putting up the wrong version :-)

However this 32-bit version *does* fail because of missing libraries,
which are not really missing (see OP). So I'm back to the beginning.
What to do?
