It is 08 April 2015 and I can confirm the bug still has not been eliminated. That's a bad for Google! I can report however that the workaround provided by madvinegar back in 2013(!) continues to function. I use a German version of Ubuntu 14.10. All my menues including those for Google Earth are in German. Fine with me. I hope Google gets around to solving this issue.
I seem to be having something similar happening on my Macbook Pro using OS Mavericks, but that issue is for another forum. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1160289 Title: Google earth search does not zoom onto a location To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/googleearth-package/+bug/1160289/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
