+ Appendix

If you see the following warning message when doing an apt update,

Target Packages (main/binary-amd64/Packages) is configured multiple times

This is because the Google Chrome package creates a special file /etc/apt/sources.list.d/google-chrome.list, which can be fixed by deleting this file.

sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/google-chrome.list
