These are all normal, as the googleearth binary has a bunch of included shared libraries that can't be handled by dpkg-shlibdeps correctly. They are harmless however. The best I could do is grep -v them out, but I'm not sure it's worth it. Maybe adding a "--quiet" mode to the whole make-googleearth-package process would be helpful, though. > After this I get the info "Success!". I can install the package and I can > start googleearth. But the graphical part looks scrambled. If the graphical part looks scrambled, that could have something to do with your video drivers or something else, but certainly doesn't have to do with the dpkg warnings. Unfortunately, since it's a proprietary, closed-source program, there probably won't be anything I can do about bugs in the program itself. =( -- Wesley J.
