Ever since I installed that version, google-chrome warns me that
it has stopped supporting this version of my operating system
- I'm running Scientific Linux release 6.3 (Carbon).

"yum --enablerepo=google-chrome list" does list
google-chrome-beta.x86_64           26.0.1410.43-189671      google-chrome
google-chrome-unstable.x86_64       27.0.1453.12-191631      google-chrome
so there may be more releases to come, but it is worth noting that
google-chrome-beta and google-chrome-stable are curently the same version.
The unstables are still being updated nightly (but is that a script on
auto-pilot?)

Updates may be continuing but Google *is* telling me,
in a very obvious way, that they have stopped....
