I'm not sure this is a good idea to do on default and/or by the installer 
package. Maybe the changes are not oncompatible, then the user looses her 
settings for nothing.

So IMO googleearth should deal with that, not googleearth-package.

I'd tag this upstream and leave it there, but I leave that to the maintainer.


cheers,
