Chrome Remote Desktop APT Installation

Chrome Remote Desktop APT Installation

During CRD installation, the only option referenced is downloading the .deb package directly and then installing it using dpkg or apt. After some searching I figured out how to install it from apt directly.

  1. Download the Google apt GPG public key
    sudo touch /usr/share/keyrings/google.gpg && wget -q -O - https://dl.google.com/linux/linux_signing_key.pub | gpg --dearmor | sudo tee /usr/share/keyrings/google.gpg > /dev/null
  2. Add the Chrome Remote Desktop respository to apt
  1. Update apt source
    sudo apt update
  2. Install CRD
    sudo apt install chrome-remote-desktop

Enjoy!
