First issue: private copy of QT4.

Whereas the idea of replacing private copy of QT4 with system one seems
interesting, it is barely achievable, as we can build googleearth against them,
and we can't expect substituting a different version, with different build
options, will work reliably. On cooker, for instance, googleearth starts, and
crashes immediatly:

[guilla...@oberkampf Desktop]$ googleearth 
Google Earth has caught signal 11.

Also, it doesn't really save any space, as installing the four required
libraries actually installs approximatively 50 packages on a x86_64 system.

Second issue: GTK theme support under QT.

Given than any QT application would benefit from GTK theme support, I don't
think that's worth adding a specific soft dependency in googleearth package
just for this. That's rather a general documentation issue, even if I don't see
where it should belong.

Third issue: /var/googleearth usage

It seems to be possible to use a temporary directory here, but the download
script is a bit convoluted. I have to test.

I don't understand the need to set LC_NUMERIC, or the issue with a shared
cache, that would mix start location in multi-user scenario. As googleearth is
a user-run application, each users saves its own data under its own directory ?
