The relevant portion from is here: The problem has to do with GoogleSoftrwareUpdate. Likewise if I go to Settings > About, I get a warning "Google Chrome may not be able to keep itself updated" I was just testing something unrelated this morning and saw that when I launched Chrome on a freshly-imaged device, I got the 'Google Chrome may not be able to keep itself updated' banner. I've been using the python script linked for years to enable auto-updates after installing the latest version of Chrome during imaging.
#Update google chrome components code
I found the team at omahaproxy have a simple plain csv file they host as well and was able to come up with the following very simple bash code to pull the current Mac version release from that.

#Update google chrome components update
I also have an "update" script that can update several products on the fly, doing live version checking, and incorporating Google Chrome into it has been a bear, because it was such a moving target to locate the latest version. In any event, I've been looking for a more reliable way to get the Google Chrome current release number, since it seems Google obscurs it to the point of being impossible to get. It doesn't appear to be something Google maintains, but I'm not completely sure on that. I'm not sure who developed or maintains the omahaproxy pages, but I looked it up to see more on it. If nothing else, you pointed me to a resource I was previously unaware of.

Thanks for your post, and showing your work.
