I am trying to get googleearth working on a machine that has the latest
upgradees installed. I did an apt-get install of the googleearth package,
and ran it. It complained about the version of googleearth it downloaded,
but I was able to continue by using the --force option. During the build I
got some messages indicating that I might need to do something with
LD_LIBRARY_PATH, but I assumed thta this would get taken care of.

It appears thta this did not ahppen though, evne after a reboot, when I try
to run googleearth, I get:

stan at boo-boo:~$ googleearth
Failed to load "/lib/libIGGfx.so" because "/lib/libIGGfx.so: cannot open
shared object file: No such file or directory"

What do I need to do to corret this?
