Google Earth cannot be installed with package-manager because its license doesn't allow anyone to distribute it freely. But you can still install it by following these instructions:
The easy way
Add the following source to your Package Manager
Name: pardususer.de Address: http://pakete.pardususer.de/pardus-2009/pisi-index.xml.bz2
in console with: sudo pisi ar pardususer.de http://pakete.pardususer.de/pardus-2009/pisi-index.xml.bz2 -y
