There is no Google Chrome in Sabayon per se, but there's www-client/chromium in both entropy and portage, which is basically the same, since chrome is based on the open source project "chromium" (do not confuse this with the chromium arcade game, also in entropy and portage). As of now, version 5.0.375.23 of chromium (released 2 weeks ago according to http://src.chromium.org/viewvc/chrome/releases/ ).

For entropy (recommended package manager for Sabayon):

Code: Select all

equo install www-client/chromium


For portage:

Code: Select all

emerge www-client/chromium

You can also merge the pre-compiled (binary) package www-client/chromium-bin from Portage, which is currently at version 5.0.376:

Code: Select all

It's faster to merge the binary package from Portage than the source package, as I believe it takes a fair while to compile.
