[SOLVED] Error when launch Google Earth on LMDE 64

Post by squiddy »

Hi.

So i've just switched to LMDE 64 from 32. All went smooth except when i launched google earth (installed from synaptic). This message came out:

Code: Select all

squiddy@squiddy's ~ $ googleearth
/usr/lib32/googleearth/googleearth-bin: error while loading shared libraries: libQtCore.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Any thoughts?

Thanks.

I have searched the only thing I can suggest at this point it open a terminal

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install googleearth

it didnt for some reason get all the libraries when it installed. Other than that I am not sure what else to suggest. Someone else may have something. If I do run into something I will def post for you.
