How to add Google repository in CentOS

Filed Under google, Howto, Linux 

Google is adding more apps to his Linux repository.

They also have script to setup repositories, but unfortunately it does not recognize CentOS and yum enabled distribution. I’ve added this code to check if yum is installed:

# Check if yum is installed RHEL v5 and CentOS 4.x and 5
if [ '/bin/rpm -q yum' ]; then
PACKAGEMANAGER=yum

Resulting script is here:

Google repos for centos

NOTE: After downloading the file just rename it from .txt to .sh and run with the shell:

bash google-repo-setup_CentOS.sh

Currently you can find there only picasa and google desktop
