Picasa 2.7 beta

Hi.

I got it working on x86_64

I downloaded http://dl.google.com/linux/deb/pool/non … _amd64.deb
and did:
ar x picasa_2.7.3736-7_amd64.deb data.tar.gz
tar xzf data.tar.gz

To get it working I had to install lib32-openssl package from AUR.

Also, Picasa complained about missing 32bit libraries. I had to modify opt/picasa/bin/wrapper file.
Line:
ldd "$parentdir/wine/bin/wine" > /dev/null
should be changed to:
ldd32 "$parentdir/wine/bin/wine" > /dev/null

And you can test if included wine works properly by running this command:
ldd32 opt/picasa/wine/bin/wine

If it complains about missing libraries, you need to install lib32- versions of them.

I upgraded the AUR lib32-openssl package to 0.9.8g.  Thanks for flagging it outdated!

Ah good to know, this also has to be done withe picasa 3.0 beta.
Thanks for pointing that out!
