google-eart-pro not launching

from LinuxQuestions.org on (#6KAXQ)
Hello every one,
while awaiting for a new motherboard for my desktop i am working on an old laptop (although running an i7 with 32Gb RAM) and I tried to launch google-earth-pro... how:

attempt 1) i downloaded the rpm binary and converted to gpz by use of the 'rpm2gpz' command (I know: very dirty, lazy and often wrong way to create slackware binary).

attempt 2) built the package from slackbuilds.org

In both cases google-earth-pro did not laucnh however, it returned the error crash log

I looked on the forum and I found what seems to be an identical thread only 6years older and the OP solved it with

Code:

For reference, with Gnome shell / wayland I need to

unset QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME
unset QT_QPA_PLATFORM

to avoid

Google Earth has caught signal 6.
Does anyone know:
a) what this means?
b) how i could apply it to my case?
c) or, how to solve the issue in any newer way?

Thanks in advance
