Google Chrome on Linux causing crashes

If you are like me and use google chrome for ubuntu 9.10 or some other debian linux, you have been experiencing errors when updating for a while.

When you run the update you may get:
WARNING: The following packages cannot be authenticated! packagename
Another symptom may be that the update was hanging at 99% "waiting for headers".

This is because apt-get is trying to validate your installed repository.

There is supposed to be a fix for this, here: http://www.google.com/linuxrepositories/apt.html

It works after hanging for a while
