How To Upgrade To Debian 12 Bookworm From Debian 11 Bullseye

Recenly I wanted to upgrade one of my virtual machines from Debian 11.1 (bullseye) to Debian 12 (bookworm). But how to do that when it is not Ubuntu, which I use quite often?

Well, I have found a very informative tutorial, step by step - with almost guaranteed success ratio ;-)

Simplify Command-Line Package Management with APT instead of apt-get

Interestingly, in Debian/Ubuntu/Mint there might be a hidden treasure in form of apt command.
I think I will look into this further.

Install Google Chrome in Debian Wheezy XFCE

In order to install chrome, you will need to do the following.

1) Download the Google Chrome Installer ( I am using the 32 bit .deb)

Alternatively, download DEB file directly.
For 32-bit systems:

wget -c https://dl.google.com/linux/direct/google-chrome-stable_current_i386.deb

For 64-bit systems:

wget -c wget https://dl.google.com/linux/direct/google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb

2) As a root install three packages that are required in order to install Chrome:

apt-get install libxss1 libcurl3 
libappindicator1

3) Now change the directory to wherever you downloaded Chrome, in my case it went to the default /home/$USER/Downloads folder, and run the following command:

dpkg -i google-chrome-stable_current_i386.deb

4) If you happen to receive errors about missing packages, you can fix it by running:

apt-get -f install

You should now see chrome under the applications menu under Internet Applications.
