I tried to install Google Chrome and received the dependencies error. Is Centos too old for the new Chrome or is there an older Chrome version that is compatible?

You need CentOS 6 or Fedora 14 to run Google Chrome :-)

Some people reported successful installation of Chrome on CentOS-5 in this forum thread (see note #15):

Hi
I use the Chromium build from:
http://www.cs.bham.ac.uk/~cxs548/chrome
The highest Chromium rev you can run with the RHEL5.x flash-plugin chrome-10.0.612.0.tar.gz is v10. chrome-11 is incompatible with flash-plugin-10.2.152.27-0.1.el5.rf. Looks like flash-plugin_10.2.153.1-0.1.el5.rf is available now, so v11 might be OK. It seems like the Chromium build leads flash-plugin by one version, but i haven't been actively upgrading as each becomes available.

You can use this repo. Made by someone on the forums, I believe his name is Mr. Kamei, but I could be wrong about the name
He's made binaries that work. Chromium itself doesn't and won't support CentOS/RH/OLE 5.5
# CentOS-Chromium.repo # # The mirror system uses the connecting IP address of the client and the # update status of each mirror to pick mirrors that are updated to and # geographically close to the client. You should use this for CentOS updates # unless you are manually picking other mirrors. # # If the mirrorlist= does not work for you, as a fall back you can try the # remarked out baseurl= line instead. # #

Chrome depends on a few newer packages than exist in 5.5. I'm guessing centos 6 will have updated packages which will allow Chrome to install.

Judging from Scientific Linux 6.0, this seems to be the case, installed without problem or any special effort.
