The easiest way to do this is to navigate to /opt/google-earth then execute the following command from the command line
*./uninstall *
[root@commandcenter google-earth]# ./uninstall Product: Google Earth Installed in /opt/google-earth Uninstalling desktop menu entries... Uninstalling mimetypes... Google Earth has been successfully uninstalled.

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).
