Hello Vincent and Gianfranco, I just wanted to inform you that, I've sent a new version of googleearth-package and it has been sitting in the mentors queue for almost a month: https://mentors.debian.net/package/googleearth-package
It fixes most (if not all) of the problems you submitted patches to. Person who would usually check this package before uploading it was busy with DebConf and now is simply not replying to my emails. I'll also send the RFS to the Mentors, and hopefully it will get uploaded soon. Please inform me if you have any additional questions and/or comments.
