Lets head to my favorite Debian Source List Generator and generate our own source list. But first we need to know what to place on the source list. Pretty amazing right? So what should we do with this source.list? We edit it and incorporate the “app store” from Debian. If you’re still confused of what is a source list is, you can imagine it as a mega App Store which can contain all the app entries from different app stores like Amazon, Google, Yandex, Nokia and others. Personally for me, this source.list is a file that summarizes all internet address where your Linux distro will search for a particular application just like an app store.

The the source list or source.list is define by the Linux manual as the list of configured APT data sources. However, I will leave the source list tutorial in the post for future reference. You could just skip editing the source list and go directly to installing Chromium using the terminal. I have tried installing Chromium from a fresh install of Kali Linux. UPDATE (old): Turns out you don’t have to edit the source.list to install Chromium. Thanks to fr2623for reminding me to update this post.
