Maemo packages are based on the Debian package format. The git repository at marble.garage.maemo.org contains necessary files for quick packaging.
We are going to check out a fresh subversion copy of Marble, add the debian specific packaging files from the marble garage git repository and build a Maemo .deb package for the armel target. It will be readily usable on the N900.
First, we check out a fresh subversion copy of Marble to a temporary directory. Make sure to do this inside scratchbox with the armel target activated if you intend to use the package on the N900.
cd $(mktemp -d)
repo="svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/trunk/KDE/kdeedu/marble"
rev="$(svn info "${repo}" | grep Revision | awk '{ print $2 }')"
svn co "${repo}" marble-0.9+svn${rev}
Inside, we'll add the debian packaging files.
cd "marble-0.9+svn${rev}"
git clone https://vcs.maemo.org/git/marble garage
ln -s garage/packaging/debian
Update the changelog, if needed.

Afterwards, build the packages:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=debian/marble/opt/marble/lib dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot
Three debian packages -- marble-$version.deb, marble-plugins-$version.deb and marble-data-$version.deb -- will end up in the parent directory. Compared to the original Debian package, they contain the following adjustments:
To install the two packages on your N900, copy them to the device and install them using dpkg.
scp ../marble*.deb root@IP-OF-N900:/home/user/MyDocs
ssh root@IP-OF-N900 -- "dpkg -i /home/user/MyDocs/marble*.deb"
You can start Marble on the N900 from the application menu. To uninstall -- how dare you! -- use the application manager.
