Package: googleearth-package
Version: 0.7.0
Severity: minor
Tags: patch

When running the resulting Google Earth package, the running instance is not
detected properly by gnome-shell (in the top panel and the overview dash).
The name shows as "googleearth-bin" with a broken icon.
I guess this is because gnome-shell can't find the association from the
running binary, googleearth-bin to the .desktop file.

The supplied patch seems to fix this issue.

Thanks for maintaining this package.
