I installed Google Earth Pro using the .deb package. Now I am struggling to find where it is installed. Where do .deb packages get installed in Ubuntu 20.04 LTS?

  • Why do you need to know where it is installed? If you know that, what would you do with this information? – Pilot6 Jul 18 '20 at 17:30
  • @Pilot6 I need to change joystick settings and need to increase speed of the airplanes in its flight simulator. – nmd_07 Jul 18 '20 at 17:31
  • How is related Google Earth and joystick? – Pilot6 Jul 18 '20 at 17:31
  • @Pilot6 Google Earth **Pro** has a built-in flight simulator. – nmd_07 Jul 18 '20 at 17:35
  • OK. And if you find the place, do you know how to increase joystick speed there? – Pilot6 Jul 18 '20 at 17:36
  • `/opt/google/earth/pro/resources/flightsim/aircraft` is where the aircraft config files are stored. Modifying them has an effect on the speed. Here is also a video that shows what to change https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ONLO5aBBvM0 – nmd_07 Jul 18 '20 at 17:49

There is no fixed place where deb files install stuff.

It depends on a deb file, what is written in its install scripts.

Regarding Google applications, it is very likely that they are installed under /opt/google.

dpkg-query -L <packagename> will show you locations of all files installed from a given package.
