How to install properly the most recent version of Google Earth
ROSA Desktop.Fresh 2012 and/or ROSA Marathon - 32bit
(it's easy, and this should work also for ROSA Marathon)
Code: Select all
urpmi --downloader wget http://dl.google.com/dl/earth/client/current/google-earth-stable_current_i386.rpm
(it's complex, this should work also for ROSA Marathon, but changing the 32bit repositories with the 2012lts ones)
UPDATE: for ROSA Marathon the 32bit repositories to be added are specified in the below of ominomichelin msg
When we use a 64bit distro, sometimes we need to install some apps that are not available in 64bit but only in 32:
sometimes apps could be native 64bit still using some 32bit lib, that's wrong but, that's the case of Google Earth 64
then we have two possibilities:
1> renounce to those apps finding other similar per functions
2> add 32bit repositories to install 32bit apps and related libs
If you can't easily renounce to some of these apps, for example, if you need to install skype, wine, teamviewer
or like in this case Google Earth, that are 32bit programs or neeeding some 32bit libs or parts, then exists a solution
You can solve using the chance 2>, and below the needed command strings to add all the 32bit repositories
I suggest to add these repositories, install apps that you need, then you can disable or remove the 32bit repos
From a konsole / terminal - login as root, then execute:
Naturally SKIP this part if you already have these repositories installed!
Code: Select all
urpmi.addmedia main32 http://mirror.rosalab.ru/rosa2012.1/repository/i586/media/main/release/
urpmi.addmedia --update main32_updates http://mirror.rosalab.ru/rosa2012.1/repository/i586/media/main/updates/

Code: Select all
urpmi --downloader wget http://dl.google.com/dl/earth/client/current/google-earth-stable_current_x86_64.rpm
http://dl.google.com/dl/earth/client/cu ... x86_64.rpm
then you can install it from your local path using "urpmi" or "rpm -ivh"
Now you can go to the font sources management and disable all the 32bit repositories
