GoogleEarth from SBo failing on 14.0 x86

SEE REASON FOR EDITING. I re-read the README and made the symlink. Whammo! Fixed.

Ok, so I just read about an island that doesn't exist on BBC and decided to check it out myself. I installed GoogleEarth on 14.0 x86. I read the README, nothing there to fix my problem. When I try to run GE, I get:
Code:
bash: /opt/GoogleEarth/googleearth-bin: No such file or directory
But when I look in there, I get this:
Code:
ls -l /opt/GoogleEarth/
total 77952

Now, I don't think I'm crazy and I do see said missing file above. Anyone have a fix on this? I also tried running /opt/GoogleEarth/googleearth and googleearth-bin directly and get the same error.

edit: Interesting update. So, when I run ldd on googleearth-bin I'm missing a library. Here's the relevant output:
Code:
ldd /opt/GoogleEarth/googleearth-bin 
	linux-gate.so.1 (0xffffe000)
	libpthread.so.0 => /lib/libpthread.so.0 (0xb7712000)
	libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0xb770d000)
	libgoogleearth_free.so => not found
	libQtCore.so.4 => /usr/lib/libQtCore.so.4 (0xb7422000)
Where do we get googleearth_free? Nevermind, it's in the /opt/GoogleEarth dir. For some reason, GE isn't finding it though.

What do you get when you run
Code:
ldd /opt/GoogleEarth/googleearth-bin

Thank you for your answer.

I have my files in

Code:
/home/jbeziat/opt/google/earth/free
"jbeziat" is my login.

So I made a cp of the bin :

Code:
cp googleearth-bin /usr/bin/
And when I try to launch GE with the command "googleeart-bin", I get this error :

Code:
jbeziat@localhost:~$ googleearth-bin 
googleearth-bin: error while loading shared libraries: libgoogleearth_free.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
If I make a ldd of the bin, I get :

Alright, I notice this : libsqlite3.so.0 => not found, libgoogleearth_free.so => not found
libglobalnew.so => not found

This explains the malfunction, but I guess it is not so simple, cause of the problem of "libgoogleearth_free" that I find in many forums...

I tried to use the script "googleearth" instead of "googleearth-bin", copied too in /usr/bin, and I get this :

Code:
jbeziat@localhost:~$ googleearth 
/usr/bin/googleearth: ligne43: ./googleearth-bin: Aucun fichier ou dossier de ce type
(that means "no file or folder").

The command :

Code:
root@localhost:/lib# ln -s ld-linux.so.2 ld-lsb.so.3
is already done.

edit : what script do we have to use to launch GE ? "googleearth" or "googleearth-bin" ?
