Failed to fetch http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/dists/stable/Release
Unable to find expected entry 'main/binary-i386/Packages' in Release file (Wrong sources.list entry or malformed file)
Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.To fix this error on Ubuntu/Debian 64-bit, the repository must be specifically set for 64-bit only – this can be done by adding “[arch=amd64]” after “deb” in the /etc/apt/sources.list.d/google-chrome.list file. To do this automatically, you can use the following command:
sudo sed -i -e 's/deb http/deb [arch=amd64] http/' "/etc/apt/sources.list.d/google-chrome.list"sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/google-chrome.list
