It should uninstall itself on the next update check, which is every 24 hours or 
so.

To be clear, what was installed with Google Earth is a product called "Google 
Software Update" (GSU for short in 
this response). GSU is a product that uses the "Update Engine" framework to do 
its updating. But please note that 
GSU is NOT the same thing as Update Engine. GSU is a product and Update Engine 
is a framework component 
(think Safari/WebKit).

The issue you're reporting is that *GSU* is still there, not that Update Engine 
is (it may sound like I'm nit picking, 
but it is an important distinction). And as was pointed out, this is not a bug. 
*GSU* will automatically uninstall 
itself the next time it does an update check.

As far as we can tell from our testing, uninstallation works as intended (see 
the details about uninstallation 
provide in previous comments). Additionally, we see no further comments stating 
that the bug still exists after 
waiting roughly 24 hours, so we assume there is no bug here.
