I just upgraded chromium on my CentOS 7 system and ended up with nothing loading. I tried to downgrade using yum downgrade chromium but there does not seem to be an older version on my system, nor does EPEL seem to have version 84 which is what I ran before.
First, does anyone know why chromium 85 does not load /anything/? Firefox runs fine.
Second, why is chromium 84 not available in EPEL?
Thanks.
Do you run chromium locally or remote? I've seen the same behavior but we're running on remote desktops which means we have to 3D support. Once in the past this was a problem with chromium so I thought maybe it's the same now.
Second, why is chromium 84 not available in EPEL?
EPEL doesn't provide old versions, they are removed when a new release comes in. You can get the older chromium here:
https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org//packages/chromium/84.0.4147.89/1.el7/x86... https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org//packages/chromium/84.0.4147.89/1.el7/x86...

It's hard to debug "does not load /anything/" without more specifics.
You may want to try the releases from the google repository. I've been using version 85 (initially stable-85.0.4183.83-1.x86_64) on my C7 systems since early this month and just updated from stable-85.0.4183.102-1.x86_64 to stable-85.0.4183.121-1.x86_64 this morning. Still with no issues.

In order to install the older version from koji, is there any way to force this downgrade from a locally downloaded package or do I need to first yum remove chromium 85?
Hoping for the first. I found rpm --replacepkgs but it cannot be used for a downgrade, not even when adding --force to the command.
