google earth installation on 16.04

There is a discussion about that problem in http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2306007&p=13405154 (workaround in Post #5)

Nothing did  help.

I downloaded from my main 14.04 laptop the lsb-core alongwith the lsb-invalid and lsb-security trasferred them to the 16.04 and installed them and then installed the google-earth 64bit.It was accepted and shown OK in synaptic but opening it it  showed a two seconds glimpse before desappearing. Everything was purged and proceeded to the packages.debian.org site and downloaded the latest versions of core, invalid, security but the result is the same.

As google earth is a must for me I have returned all laptops to 16.04 and hope that in the two remaining years of 16.04 life there will be a solution.Thanks for the assistance

Ubuntu 14.04.1 has almost three years of support remaining.

Correct and the correction requires the heading as well to 16.04. Sorry
