How to install Google Earth on Debian Stretch?
Debian dropped LSB support, so lsb-core
it's not in Debian >= Stretch anymore.
Update
As correctly noted by @tknv, some months after this answer a new lsb-compat
has been made available. So the best solution to the problem is to install it:
sudo apt install lsb-compat
Tampering way (deprecated):
To have it working you also could:
- Modify the package metadata removing the
lsb-core
dependency - Ensure the presence of
ld-lsb
ELF linker (once provided bylsb-core
)
To do so you can:
- Follow the instructions already reported here
Check the name of the ld-lsb ELF linker required (architecture dependent):
ldd /opt/google/earth/free/googleearth-bin |grep ld
Using the information gathered in 2, manually create the symlink. For 64-bit architecture the command is:
sudo ln -s /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 /lib64/ld-lsb-x86-64.so.3
For 32-bit architecture I guess the correct command would be:
sudo ln -s /lib/ld-linux-x86.so.2 /lib/ld-lsb-x86.so.3
It worked with my Debian Stretch. Try:
sudo apt-get install lsb-compat
