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

So, What should I be doing ? I'm ready to add a bounty to get the latest chrome on my box if I have to – (I'm frustrated).

Thank you,

As the error message says you are missing some dependencies to be able to run chrome. Your version of rhel needs to be upgraded to support that.

First upgrade your os yum update -y then try again.
