Summary: GoogleEarth should use the system Qt4 libs instead of
its own (permitting font antialiasing)
Product: googleearth
Version: 5.1.3533.1731
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P2
Component: package
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
GoogleEarth default PLF installation has ugly aliased fonts. It seems that the
only solution to work around this problem is not to use GoogleEarth own Qt4
libs.
Simply removing the 4 Qt libs (libQtCore.so.4, libQtGui.so.4,
libQtNetwork.so.4, libQtWebKit.so.4) and symlinking googleearth/plugins to
/usr/lib/qt4/plugins can do the trick (at least it works for me):
rm /usr/lib/googleearth/libQt*
ln -s /usr/lib/qt4/plugins /usr/lib/googleearth/plugins
Of course we need to add requirements on the equivalent Mandriva's Qt4 libs:
- libqtcore4
- libqtgui4
- libqtnetwork4
- libqtwebkit4
Another advantage when using Mandriva's Qt4 libraries is to save space.
libQtWebKit alone is taking 16M...
Another thing I found is that "rpm -ql googleearth" is reporting that the RPM
owns the /var/googleearth directory and /var/googleearth/GoogleEarthLinux.bin
file, although there's no such GoogleEarthLinux.bin file in this directory and
the directory itself doesn't seem to be useful...
