Desktop is CentOS 5.4 (32 bit). I have Google Earth version 4.2.205.5730 (13NOV2007 build date) installed. I have checkinstall (spelling?) installed, but am not sure if that was installed before or after Google Earth was installed. I have the Google Repository installed, but apparently Google Earth cannot be updated via yum and probably it was not installed via yum.
Question: What is the best way for me to uninstall this version of Google Earth, completely, before I install the newest version? (This also applies to removing Skype, which I am certain was not installed via yum, before I install the static version of Skype, that was recently recommended on the list).
TIA and Happy Holidays! Lanny
Lanny, if you don't have an /opt/google-earth/uninstall, welcome to the club. There seems to be a rash of that going around. The answer might be at http://earth.google.com/support/bin/search.py?hl=en&forum=1&query=un...
I've never tried Skype.
