Version 5.x
Current Download: http://dl.google.com/earth/client/GE5/release_5_1_0/GoogleEarth-Win-5.1.3506.3999.exe
Older Release 5.0: http://dl.google.com/earth/client/GE5/release_5_0/GoogleEarth-Win-Plus-5.0.11337.1968.exe
and http://cache.pack.google.com/edgedl/earth/client/GE5/release_5_0_1/GoogleEarth-Win-Plus-5.0.11733.9347.exe
First start the install manually and get the contents of the Folder with "google earth.msi" from your local Temp directory and store this to your packages/googleearth directory.
<package
id="googleearth"
name="Google Earth"

reboot="false"

<check type="uninstall" condition="exists" path="Google Earth" />
<install cmd='%COMSPEC% /C "md %SystemDrive%\netinst\logs\"' > <!-- install fails if log dir doesn't exist -->

<!--
For other versions check out the line beginning "ProductCode=" from Setup.ini in same directory as google earth.msi.
-->
<exit code="0" />
<exit code="1605" reboot="true" />
</remove>
</package>
Version 4.2.198.2451
I used the following commands:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<packages>
<package id='GoogleEarth' name='Google Earth' revision='421982451' priority='50' reboot='true' >
<!-- Google Earth -->
<check type='uninstall' condition='exists' path='Google Earth' />
<install cmd='"%SOFTWARE%\Google Earth v.4.2.198.2451\Google_Earth_BZXD.exe" /S /v/qn' />
<install cmd='"%SOFTWARE%\Google Earth v.4.2.198.2451\postinstall.cmd"' />
<remove cmd='msiexec.exe /qn /x{407B9B5C-DAC5-4F44-A756-B57CAB4E6A8B}' />
<upgrade cmd='"%SOFTWARE%\Google Earth v.4.2.198.2451\Google_Earth_BZXD.exe" /S /v/qn' />
<upgrade cmd='"%SOFTWARE%\Google Earth v.4.2.198.2451\postinstall.cmd"' />
<depends package-id='shortcut' />
</package>
</packages>
While using the following postinstall.cmd:
@echo off
echo Create shortcut
set PRGPATH="%ALLUSERSPROFILE%"
Shortcut.exe "/f:%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\StartmenÂ\Programme\Google Earth.lnk" /a:c /t:^%%ProgramFiles^%%"\Google\Google Earth\googleearth.exe" /w:^%%ProgramFiles^%%"\Google\Google Earth"
Shortcut.exe "/f:%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Start Menu\Programs\Google Earth.lnk" /a:c /t:^%%ProgramFiles^%%"\Google\Google Earth\googleearth.exe" /w:^%%ProgramFiles^%%"\Google\Google Earth"
REM exit 0
This will create the shourtcuts within the all users profile since google earth will install them only to the current user. So in case you run WPKG using WPKG-Client it installs it to the SYSTEM user start menu only and the icons will never appear somewhere.
NOTE: For this to work you need the shortcut.exe tool.
NOTE: For version ending with BZXD you can use the command
Google_Earth_BZXD.exe /S /v"/qb ALLUSERS=2"
This will put the shortcut in the all users profile
