That's about osgEarth 2.8, which is still in Debian experimental because 
QGIS doesn't support it yet, not even QGIS 3.0 which benefits from the 
Qt5 support in osgEarth 2.8.

QGIS 2.14 LTR doesn't support osgEarth 2.7 which is in Debian 
testing/unstable and hence the globe plugin is disabled in those 
distributions.

QGIS >= 2.16 does support osgEarth 2.7, but not 2.5 in Debian jessie and 
QGIS disables the globe plugin for the unsupported osgEarth versions.

Kind Regards,
