When you are trying to install Google Chrome on Ubuntu, you may receive the following error:
Error Message
“dpkg: error: need an action option”
Solution
This may be because of the command you copied from somewhere and you pasted on the terminal. Instead of -, a _ may have been replaced in the command as shown below,
sudo dpkg –i google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb
Correct the command and it should be like this,
sudo dpkg -i google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb
[SOLVED] “dpkg: error: need an action option”
