Hi All,
With all the WFH stuff going on I set up a new fresh installed laptop for my wife.
She needs google-chrome on there because for some reason MS-teams does not want to allow video-conferencing in Firefox.
After doing a fresh F32 beta install from the workstation livecd I wanted to edit /etc/yum.repos.d/google-chrome.repo to enable that repo, but it was not there.
AFAIK the intention is for the fedora-workstation-repositories to be there, so I think we might have a bug in comps here somewhere?
Regards,
Hans
p.s.
I have the feeling from some older installs on older machines that the same issue is present in Fedora 31, but not much we can do about that.

Probably easier to add it to the kickstarts as if people install the group alongside other options it might cause issues, in fedora-workstation-common.ks, I did a PR [1] for other live images on the weekend, I didn't add Workstation as I wasn't sure if it was being done by another method and didn't have time to grab latest live. I'm happy to update my PR to include Workstation in that.

Hi Hans,
No, it's not a bug. We weren't allowed to ship fedora-workstation-repositories by default as per Fedora Council guidance. It was only last week that we got a new ruling that finally allows doing that (but it needs some work in other related components first before we can actually do that).
