For years now I've like many others been struggling to get Google Earth working.
I'm not particularly fond of Mint but it was on their forum I found a relatively easy way to install it.
Contrary to other methods it will also get the Panoramio photo's displayed, something that I as a frequent traveller and less frequent contributor really appreciate.
The typical problem of the missing ia32-libst library is now overcome by Apt suggesting alternatives, lib32z1 and lib32ncurses5.

Yes it's the 32-bit version of Google but the path to install the 64-bit version SteveRiley showed last year did for me not deliver Panoramio.
The only 'bug' I notice is the opening tips screen shows a 404, page not found.
