The only way that would work for C6 is if the script from Richard Lloyd, 
or similar, is used to segregate newer libraries from f15 and f17 into 
e.g. /opt/google/chrome/lib so versions of Chrome newer than v27 will 
install and run on C6, but other programs won't use those libraries.

C7 uses those newer libraries by default, so such an installation script 
isn't needed to make Chrome work on C7.  For now, anyway. :)

Chromium (see subject line) is the open source version of Chrome, of course.
