Harald, I do believe that this issue is with the packaging and *not* with the upstream program. The "marble-qt" package, which is a variant of the "marble" package built without KDE dependencies, does not create a .desktop file in /usr/share/applications.
As the "marble" package does not share this issue, and both packages are built from the same source, this is a packaging issue and would not be appropriate for the upstream bug tracker. ** Description changed: - Installing the marble-qt package does not create a menu entry that can - be accessed in the dash (Ubuntu) or application menu (Xubuntu, Lubuntu). + Installing the "marble-qt" package does not create a .desktop file in + /usr/share/applications, and therefore does not create a menu entry that + can be accessed in the dash (Ubuntu) or application menu (Xubuntu, + Lubuntu).
