Untagged it for both i686 and x86_64.
Bfinch can you move it back to unsupported ?
Don't get me wrong but please take this advice: If you add software to [community] please read the License if it is not a common one like GPL.

Hey all; Well I have EXACTLY two emails in my in box over the past 48 hours since I adopted google-earth, and both of those in the last day. Apparently I am NOT subscribed to one of the email lists that this was discussed on, so alas, I could NOT respond or have any knowledge of any such discussions. I also do NOT have any private emails from anyone on this subject either over the past two days. I was specifically NOT ignoring anyone, including Ronald, but rather I had no idea of what was being discussed. AND this package was removed *altogether* but NOT by me, and certainly before I could have responded. <- That is perfectly fine with me. Under the circumstances I fully agree. I would *also* be happy to replace it in unsupported, as apparently it has been determined to NOT have it in any repo. Finally, while I *did* read the license, it was not until I read some of the scuttlebutt on the internet that I appreciated all of the issues folks seem to have with Google's licensing. The license is, in simple language, exceptionally poorly written and subject to an incredible range of legal interpretation. <- This ALONE is a good enough reason for me to agree that it does not belong in ANY repo associated with Arch. SO, *if* you guys want I can replace it into unsupported alongside the existing bin32 package that currently resides there. Please advise me accordingly. Thanks in advance for letting me know *if* this program is wanted in unsupported. Very best regards; Bob Finch P.S.... Will it be possible to retain or reinstate the 250-odd votes this package received ?; as it is now NOT extent in either unsupported OR the community repo, and it would be nice to be able to properly reflect the voting.
