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, Holger
