An AppImage contains everything an app needs to run on most Linux systems. Just download one file, chmod +x, and run. No installation, no root, no unpacking, no repositories to be managed. http://appimage.org

The Google Earth license does not allow to redistribute it, but you can generate your own Google Earth AppImage by running this script on a x86_64 Linux system.

Let @googleearth know if you'd like to see an official AppImage from them.
