Thanks, unfortunate timing then.

For reference, with Gnome shell / wayland I need to

unset QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME
unset QT_QPA_PLATFORM

to avoid

Google Earth has caught signal 6.

After upgrade, Google earth refuses to start and I get this error message : [0428/184023:ERROR:net_util.cc(2195)] Not implemented reached in bool net::HaveOnlyLoopbackAddresses() [0428/184023:WARNING:backend_impl.cc(1875)] Destroying invalid entry.

Yes.

Do you know if Google Earth's 64-bit version require 32-bit libs? I'd like to install this but am really straining to avoid cluttering up this system with multi-arch dependencies. Thanks.

Changing to PKGEXT=".pkg.tar.lzo". I'll be adding the 'pacman>=4.1' dependency, if there's too many complaints. E: Here's some statistics: .tar: 117M/0.14s .tar.lrzip: 28M/0.15s .tar.lzop: 59M/0.54s .tar.gz: 42M/6.0s .tar.xz 28M/51.1s E2: Oh, well, no, I can't do that, if lzop's provided by [extra] and not even required by pacman (and if I made it a makedep I might as well use lrzip).

No, because that would mean you're downloading both. The AUR Sources parser doesn't understand "$CARCH" statements or alternative links. Makepkg does. That's why the right one will be downloaded anyway (from the PKGBUILD): _arch=i386 # Workaround for the AUR Web interface Source parser [ "$CARCH" = 'x86_64' ] && _arch=amd64 source=("$pkgname-stable_$pkgver_$_arch.deb"::"http://dl.google.com/earth/client/current/$pkgname-stable_current_$_arch.deb"

Strike that, it just needs to be listed in the sources.

Shouldn't the 64 bit version be an option? http://dl.google.com/earth/client/current/google-earth-stable_current_AMD64.deb

Recent updates to various lib32 files prompted me to try google-earth 7 to see if it worked. The program launched but I only got the yellow lines again. Just wanted to test it. GE6 works fine.
