Google has not released Google Earth 5. There is a beta version of
Google Earth 5 available. That is not a release.

Don't install it as root. Google Earth 5 is still a beta release and
it is likely that it will ruin your computer, eat the food in your
fridge, and sleep with your significant other. Install it as user:

$ chmod +x GoogleEarthLinux.bin
$ ./GoogleEarthLinux.bin
$ googleearth
