Qgis globe plugin (2.16) missing on Ubuntu 14.04

I just upgraded from Qgis 2.14 to 2.16 and I can't get the Globe plugin to work. Apparently, under Ubuntu it is necessary to install it separately. But in the Ubuntugis repository, only version 2.14 of qgis-plugin-globe is available and Synaptic refuses to install it:

qgis-plugin-globe:
  Depends: qgis (=2.14.3+dfsg-2~trusty1) but 1:2.16.0+20trusty is to be installed
 Depends: libopenscenegraph100v5 but it is not going to be installed

 Depends: libosgearth3 but it is not going to be installed
 Depends: libosgearthqt3 but it is not going to be installed
 Depends: libosgearthutil3 but it is not going to be installed

Any idea how to get this plugin to work?

Answer

It seems like you need Ubuntu Xenial to get Globe for 2.16.

I got the following explanation on the QGIS mailing list by Jürgen:

Globe is only include where osgearth 2.7 is available (ie. debian unstable has it, ubuntugis xenial has it IIRC).

For 2.14 it's inverse, there globe is only available where osgearth<2.7 is available.
