Hi @Prabakar Ammeappin​ ,

I have also gone through the other options of installing Chromium without a snap. But we are finding the options either too complex or not from an official source. I found the following options from the link you had shared. Which option would Databricks recommend ?

  1. Option 01 - Install from Debian Repo
    1. Is it safe to mix packages from Debian and Ubuntu - Messing source lists seems risky ? Even if we pin items, is it safe enough ?
  2. Option 02 - ppa:saiarcot895/chromium-beta - Unofficial PPA - Is it safe ? Can we trust it to remain patched and up to date ?
  3. Option 03 - Google Chrome - Possible License Issues considering that Chrome is not open source ?
  4. Other Options - Flatpak, Nix Installs, Linux Mint Install.
