Or -- if you have the 'apt-file' package installed: tomas@rasputin:~$ sudo apt-file update # do this from time to time [some output elided] tomas@rasputin:~$ apt-file search libcurl.so.4 libcurl3: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcurl.so.4 libcurl3: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcurl.so.4.2.0 libcurl3: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcurl.so.4.3.0 libcurl3: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcurl.so.4.4.0 Thus, libcurl3 is providing the library (this works even when the package in question isn't installed). To see where googleearth is looking for its libs, try ldd /usr/lib/googleearthbin regards - -- tomás -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAlYL6EwACgkQBcgs9XrR2kYgKgCfUNtN5+EaI7IQ86Ovc1sIbike XbkAn1KzoguyqzNovGaQ8zl/QUZaD+t9 =HBNC -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
