Chrome127 Build Update Fails on Workspace Linux 2

Question

I have quite a few workspace VMs running Linux2 that require the latest Chrome build for our employees. However, I am unable to install or update to version 127. It throws an "Error: Invalid version flag:" message. Based on research this is due to EOL Linux 2. However, the only PCOIP images available at this time are all Linux 2.

Hello,

AL2 dont support latest version of google chrome, so updgrade your instance to AL2023.

** Else Use Chromium **

$ `sudo amazon-linux-extras install epel -y`

$ `sudo yum install -y chromium`

=================

Also try below method to install google chome

```
# sudo yum update -y
# sudo yum groupinstall "Development Tools" -y
# sudo yum install -y wget bzip2 gcc make
# curl -LO https://github.com/apple/cups/releases/download/v2.3.3/cups-2.3.3-source.tar.gz
# tar -xvf cups-2.3.3-source.tar.gz
# cd cups-2.3.3
# ./configure
#  make
# sudo make install
# cups-config --version
# sudo systemctl enable cups --now
#  wget https://dl.google.com/linux/direct/google-chrome-stable_current_x86_64.rpm
# sudo yum install ./google-chrome-stable_current_x86_64.rpm -y
```
