This app does NOT use WINE, but is a native Linux app, using QT - not like 
Picassa, which is built on WINE. See the following link:

Here's a short quote:

For most Linux users, of course, the biggest news is simply the availability 
of a native Linux client. It was possible before to run previous versions of 
Google Earth under Wine, but the Google Earth 4 Beta is a native application 
built on Qt and OpenGL.
