I will not update (for now) to the latest version 7.3.6.9326 because it crashes continuously for me.

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.

Solution for error with file libgoogleearth_free.so download the file libGL.so.1 with wget https://launchpadlibrarian.net/7037027/libGL.so.1 and copy it to /opt/google/earth/free with cp libGL.so.1 /opt/google/earth/free/ And that's all ;)

Hehe, seems the lib32-* dependencies are still needed after all - the amd64 .deb package has 'ia32-libs' as its dependency (and they didn't just forget it there - 'lsof' confirms this). In any case, there's no real reason to have 2 separate packages for Google Earth when the other one can be both at the same time. Whenever Google starts offering real 64-bit binaries for Google Earth, could be a week from now, could be a year, this thing can start using them. I also added 'ttf-ms-fonts' as an optional dependency, as it seems to solve the ugly fonts for me and some random Ubuntu users.

Removed the unnecessary cron job. Thanks for pointing the unnecessity of it out, raqua. @Berseker, the fonts can be changed with 'qtconfig'. I also added 'qt' to optional dependencies.

I see that thw different versions of this PKGBUILD have been merged. I am now asking to all: We have to find a way to make Google Earth look good on our desktop, as it is now it seems a Windows95 app (really unwatchable) Have anyone done some hacking about this?

Hello. I just discovered google-earth script in /etc/cron.daily. Seems to be some Debian related stuff, which I believe is not needed.

By the way, you are defining all the 64-bit stuff the wrong way: [ $CARCH = 'x86_64' ] && _a="amd64" This line doesn't mean that "everything else after this line will also pass said 64-bit check" - it only means that the "_a" variable is given the value of "amd64". You are supposed to use the if-else logic for that. Your current implementation gives everyone a 64-bit version of Google Earth and its dependencies.

Wait for those 6 days :). Then I can either give you the link to the discussion I create or you can start it yourself. You can do this simply by sending an e-mail to "aur-general@archlinux.org". If you don't want to wait, you can do it already. I'll send the request in 6 days nontheless.

I'd like to adopt the package google-earth. What should I do?
