You are clearly welcome to use Gnome.   You run a Gnome compatible desktop.  
But not everyone does.  And Google doesn't mention Gnome, in spite of your 
insistance that it does.

Anyhow, John: we have established that although Russ used gdebi GNOME GUI, 
versions of gdebi exist for the rest of us.  There are gdebi-core (CLI) and 
gdebi KDE GUI.  And Gnome doesn't come into Google Earth (though Gnome may do 
a package for it, of course).
