<b>Version: <Kenneth, what is the frequency?></b>

What steps will reproduce the problem?

(2) Try to download the unstable build:  wget http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/pool/main/g/google-chrome-unstable/google-chrome-unstable_54.0.2837.0-1_amd64.deb
(3) Try to download the stable build: wget http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/pool/main/g/google-chrome-stable/google-chrome-stable_52.0.2743.116-1_amd64.deb

What is the expected output?
All steps should succeed.

What do you see instead?
The stable download (step 3) fails.


Please use labels and text to provide additional information.
The repository metadata is most likely pointing to the wrong file.

This is breaking CI tests that rely on being able to download/upgrade Chrome.

The developer who told me about this issue pointed me to the report here: https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/chrome/xJi6KD8qWOs;context-place=forum/chrome
 
I'm the original reporter from productforums -- happy to help test a fix or etc if that would help.

Thanks much!

I filed an internal bug at http://b/31940456 before I saw the last few comments.

52.0.2743.116?!?! Stable should be 53.xxx.

Something seems very, very wrong here. Looking at https://omahaproxy.appspot.com/, all the Linux channels got rolled by one major version somehow.

This was caused by something going wrong with an internal cleanup tool that is intended to remove old versions of the linux packages; I believe we've successfully restored the repo to a working condition. Investigation is ongoing into what went wrong and follow-up will take place on the internal bug as it may contain details about our serving infrastructure (sorry to the external folks).

omahaproxy may take some time to catch up.

Please re-open if it's still not working for you.
This is now working for me!

@waffles: Thank you very much for the quick turnaround on this issue!
