Updating Chrome Remote Desktop on Docker

If you’re looking to update Chrome Remote Desktop within a Docker container, you can follow these steps:

  1. Access Your Docker Container: First, use the docker exec command to access the Docker container where Chrome Remote Desktop is installed. Replace container_name with the actual name of your container.

    1
    
    docker exec -it container_name /bin/bash
  2. Download the Updated Package: Once inside the container, utilize wget to download the latest Chrome Remote Desktop package.

    1
    
    wget http://dl.google.com/linux/direct/chrome-remote-desktop_current_amd64.deb
  3. Install the Package: Install the updated package using the dpkg command.

    1
    
    dpkg -i chrome-remote-desktop_current_amd64.deb
  4. Resolve Dependencies: Address any unmet dependencies by employing apt-get. For instance:

    1
    
    apt-get -f install
  5. Restart the Chrome Remote Desktop Service: Restart the Chrome Remote Desktop service to apply the changes.

    1
    
    systemctl restart chrome-remote-desktop
  6. Exit the Container: After updating and restarting the service, exit the Docker container.

    1
    
    exit

Ensure that you replace container_name with your actual container’s name. Remember, it’s prudent to have a backup or snapshot of your Docker container before performing updates to mitigate unforeseen issues.
