"undefined symbol:" is an error that appears when the symbol is not found in the shared library required to run the binary, and "undefined symbol:gbm_bo_get_modifier" appears to be included in libgbm.so.1.

For example, you can use the strings command to verify:

$string/lib64/libgbm.so.1 | grep gbm_bo_get_modifier
gbm_bo_get_modifier

libgbm.so.1 is included in the "mesa-libgbm-18.3.4-12.el7_9.x86_64" package.

$rpm-qf/lib64/libgbm.so.1
mesa-libgbm-18.3.4-12.el7_9.x86_64

I installed CentOS 7 from minimal for this confirmation, and I installed the Chrome rpm file directly as I asked, but there was no problem.
yum automatically installed mesa-libgbm, etc. to resolve dependencies.

proposal 1:

Verify that mesa-libgbm is installed and try yum update to update your system package to the latest state.

proposal 2:

There seems to be a way to use yum localinstall to download the rpm file before installing it.The link below seems to be similar to this case.
