How to install google earth from a bin?

Install dependencies.

su -c 'yum -y install wget glibc ImageMagick desktop-file-utils shared-mime-info'

wget -c http://dl.google.com/earth/client/current/GoogleEarthLinux.bin

sh GoogleEarthLinux.bin

Enjoy!!

Didn't work for me! on fedora 18: 3.8.6-203.fc18.x86_64
