Error: Checksum for Cask 'google-chrome' does not match
Error: Checksum for Cask 'google-chrome' does not match
Updated over a week ago

Issue:

When trying to use homebrew to install "google-chrome", I receive the following error:

`Error: Checksum for Cask 'google-chrome' does not match`

Possible solutions:

This error is received when the checksum for the source does not match the checksum for the downloaded file. This might be an issue with the download process. If so, the problem could resolve itself.

As a workaround, you can add the following to a Script Step to install:

temp=$TMPDIR$(uuidgen)
mkdir -p $temp/mount
curl https://dl.google.com/chrome/mac/stable/GGRO/googlechrome.dmg > $temp/1.dmg
yes | hdiutil attach -noverify -nobrowse -mountpoint $temp/mount $temp/1.dmg
cp -r $temp/mount/*.app /Applications
hdiutil detach $temp/mount
rm -r $temp
