So, from the transcript you sent, it *is* building a valid package, but it's named "googleearth_+0.0.8-1_i386.deb", which I agree is probably not what you were expecting. Is this correct? This comes up because when it doesn't recognize the version and you use --force, it uses a blank version, which is then augmented with the googleearth-package version (hence "+0.0.8-1" instead of the "4.1.7076.4458+0.0.8-1" you were expecting). Anyway, I can fix this in the next version if this is all that's going on. If these is some other problem, like the package built is actually bad, that might be a separate issue, which you should file separately. -- Wesley J.
