[Slackbuilds-users] Google-earth upgrade question

When I ran sbopkg google-earth was offered as an upgrade from the
installed --7.3.2.5483. Of course, the md5sums did not match so downloaded
the 32-bit .deb from SBo (version -7.3.2.5487).

However, when built I have the same 5483 build as the output.

Is this something I did incorrectly or was the newest 32-bit version not
available from the SBo package page?

Regards,

Rich

Willy,

That's interesting. There are computers using the Atom CPU which is
32-bit, and probably others.

I've not run into any issues using google-earth so I don't know what any
new releases provide that the one on this host lacks.

Perhaps the 32-bit link can be removed from the SBo page and mention made
that like Opera google-earth is now only 64-bit.

And, the 32-bit Opera (and chromium) still work here when some web server
fails to accommodate the latest firefox versions.

Thanks,

Rich
