Comment(by darkblueb):

 my understanding is that the Marble version installed now is two years
 old, and that many compelling new features are now available in the new
 Marble. It appears this fix would benefit the Live project because we save
 space by removing KDE libs, and, get these new features.

 Marble is not an OSGeo project, but something like TMS tile support
 creates a basis for showing other project demos. I believe Marble is
 substantial enough such that we could plan to use it as a base for demos
 for the forseeable future. I also like that it is an easy demo to users of
 varying technical skill levels, and age groups.
