  Description     : utility for automatically building a Google Earth Debian package

Google Earth is a great program now available for GNU/Linux, but sadly
is both non-free and non-distributable. For those who wish to run it on
their Debian system, but wish it to be managed by the normal Debian
packaging system, this program will assist in building a local Debian
package in a similar fashion to java-package. This package *itself*
contains absolutely no code from Google and is 100% free. (For the
curious, this is appropriately destined for contrib.)
