Changing:

    cat > etc/apt/sources.list <<-EOF
    deb http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/ stable main
    EOF


into:

    cat > etc/apt/sources.list <<-EOF
    deb [arch=amd64] http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/ stable main
    EOF


has fixed it. amd64 could of course be i386 or something else too,
whichever Debian architecture it is run on.

Should I go file a bug report?
