首先，从google官方下载简体中文版的google earth
http://www.google.com/intl/zh-CN/earth/download/ge/agree.html
打开终端，切换到root用户
[hang@localhost 下载]$ su root
好，我们先来看看google earth的安装帮助
[root@localhost 下载]# chmod 777 GoogleEarthLinux.bin [root@localhost 下载]# GoogleEarthLinux.bin --help Makeself version 2.1.5 1) Getting help or info about ./GoogleEarthLinux.bin : ./GoogleEarthLinux.bin --help Print this message ./GoogleEarthLinux.bin --info Print embedded info : title, default target directory, embedded script ... ./GoogleEarthLinux.bin --lsm Print embedded lsm entry (or no LSM) ./GoogleEarthLinux.bin --list Print the list of files in the archive ./GoogleEarthLinux.bin --check Checks integrity of the archive 2) Running ./GoogleEarthLinux.bin : ./GoogleEarthLinux.bin [options] [--] [additional arguments to embedded script] with following options (in that order) --confirm Ask before running embedded script --noexec Do not run embedded script --keep Do not erase target directory after running the embedded script --nox11 Do not spawn an xterm --nochown Do not give the extracted files to the current user --target NewDirectory Extract in NewDirectory --tar arg1 [arg2 ...] Access the contents of the archive through the tar command -- Following arguments will be passed to the embedded script
接下来，根据安装帮助上的指示，我们可以运行GoogleEarthLinux.bin把安装程序解压到指定的临时文件夹里，
在这里我把它指定解压到/tmp/google-earth目录下。
[root@localhost 下载]# mkdir /tmp/google-earth [root@localhost 下载]# GoogleEarthLinux.bin --target /tmp/google-earth Creating directory /tmp/google-earth Verifying archive integrity... All good. Uncompressing Google Earth for GNU/Linux 6.0.1.2032............................................................................................. This version of Google Earth requires LSB 4.0 support which you do not seem to have. ./setup.sh: line 285: [: missing `]' /bin/su: 用户yum install redhat-lsb 不存在 setup.data/setup.xml:1: parser error : Document is empty ^ setup.data/setup.xml:1: parser error : Start tag expected, '<' not found ^ ./setup.sh: line 158: 3516 段错误 (core dumped) "$setup" "$@"
解压后它自动运行安装程序并出现了错误提示，说我没有安装LSB。
LSB其实我已经安装过啦，并且是最新版本，所以暂时不用管它
[root@localhost 下载]# yum install redhat-lsb 已加载插件：langpacks, presto Adding zh_CN to language list google-chrome | 951 B 00:00 rpmfusion-free-updates | 3.3 kB 00:00 rpmfusion-nonfree-updates | 3.3 kB 00:00 updates/metalink | 5.2 kB 00:00 updates | 4.7 kB 00:00 updates/primary_db | 3.3 MB 00:15 设置安装进程 包 redhat-lsb-4.0-5.fc14.i686 已安装并且是最新版本 无须任何处理
接下来我们切换到/tmp/google-earth/setup.data/bin/Linux/x86目录下
用setup.gtk把setup.gtk2覆盖掉
[root@localhost 下载]# cd /tmp/google-earth/setup.data/bin/Linux/x86 [root@localhost x86]# mv setup.gtk setup.gtk2 mv：是否覆盖"setup.gtk2"？ y
最后，我们再次切换回google earth的解压目录下
运行安装脚本setup.sh
[root@localhost x86]# cd /tmp/google-earth [root@localhost google-earth]# ./setup.sh
google earth的图形界面安装程序就弹出来啦
接下来图形界面下的安装就易办多了
我把google earth安装到/opt/google/google-earth目录下
点击“Begin Install”
最终google earth在Fedora 14下的安装就结束啦
