I need an old version of chromium for graphical testing purposes, executed by Linux (whathever version, ubuntu preferred) on Mac m1.
I'm on a Mac and I run this version of linux on docker which works and gives me a GUI interaction via VLC:
https://github.com/fcwu/docker-ubuntu-vnc-desktop
docker run -p 6080:80 -v /dev/shm:/dev/shm dorowu/ubuntu-desktop-lxde-vnc --name=browtest
root@204876e368d0:/root# lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS
Release: 20.04
Codename: focal
I've also find some useful hint in this post. So I've found this version that should be the perfect fit:
But here is the problem once I tried to execute it:
# ./chrome
./chrome: error while loading shared libraries: libgconf-2.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
seems legit, some lib could be missing. alrigh I'll install it:
root@204876e368d0:/root/Downloads/chrome-linux# sudo apt-get install libgconf-2-4

Do you want to continue? [Y/n]
but now this happens:

And I don't know how to keeep fixing this. Any solution that could allow a chromium 53 running on a linux accessible by mac (via docker/emulation) would be ok for my purpose. So if you see other ways to get the purpose please do tell.
