I would like to install Google Earth Pro on Ubuntu Linux 16.04 LTS. I can download the .DEB file from here. This is the correct file for my processor. I can open the file in the Ubuntu software manager and choose to install the software. No Google Earth Pro is available when I open the Dash. How do I install Google Earth Pro?

After running sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get -f install I get the following errors.

Err:16 http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntugis/ubuntugis-unstable/ubuntu *codename*/main Sources

  • Open a terminal and type sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get -f install and post any errors. – Panther Sep 14 '17 at 20:59
  • @bodhi.zazen. I have added the terminal errors to my question. – GBG Sep 14 '17 at 21:18
  • Well all those 404 errors mean there is no package available. The first one "Err:16 http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntugis/ubuntugis-unstable/ubuntu codename/main Sources 404 Not Found" is a typo, "codename" should read xenial. – Panther Sep 14 '17 at 21:30
  • The public key error tells you the key to use "W: GPG error: http://qgis.org/debian xenial InRelease: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY CAEB3DC3BDF7FB45" See https://askubuntu.com/questions/13065/how-do-i-fix-the-gpg-error-no-pubkey – Panther Sep 14 '17 at 21:35
  • Technically the GPG key is a waning, you can install software without the key. Fix your repos and try again. – Panther Sep 14 '17 at 21:36
