Using 64-bit Archlinux, I had to rename the following 4 font conf. files to '.old', in effect disabling them to avoid the 'Crash Signal 11' error in google earth 7. 

infinality:
/etc/fonts/infinality/styles.conf.avail/infinality/21-aliases-wine-win7-inf.conf
/etc/fonts/infinality/styles.conf.avail/infinality/60-group-non-tt-fonts.conf
/etc/fonts/infinality/styles.conf.avail/infinality/60-group-tt-fonts.conf

fonts:
/etc/fonts/conf.d/65-fonts-persian.conf
