Yesterday I installed Fedora 15 Beta with GNOME 3 – it works well. One problem though is that I installed Chrome 32-bit (which was wrong, should have been the 64-bit version) and now I can't uninstall it.
I can't find it in Add/Remove Software, and I also can't install the correct version of Chrome because it complains about my other copy of Chrome.
Any ideas how I can remove the existing copy and get the 64-bit version installed?
Here's the message I get when trying to install:
