sci-geosciences/googleearth-7.1.7.2600 emerge fails checksum proposed solution: create ebuild for 7.1.7.2602 as of october 23rd. Reproducible: Always
Googleearth is to be removed from portage: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=594562
After doing an emerge @world as of today, sci-geosciences/googleearth-7.1.7.2606::gentoo got emerged and tested on two different gentoo boxes of mine. It hasn't even crashed once, so I'd say its fixed and working!
