Wow, yeah. There is something weird going on there. It looks a lot like
the google-earth stuff is providing some kind of core stuff which
should usually come from a Fedora package, so that package isn't
installed. But I dunno how you got in that state in the *first* place.
What does `rpm -q --provides google-earth` show?

Now it gets really weird...
# rpm -q --provides google-earth
package google-earth is not installed
