To make a long story short, the bindings don't take QTONLY into 
consideration, mainly because no one has asked for it before.

Also, normally marble is compiled as part of KDE kdeedu module. The 0.8 
source on http://edu.kde.org/marble/download.php is marble pulled out of 
kdeedu with changes to the build system. The python bindings have been 
left out in this case.

I had a play around with the 0.8 release last night, and I don't see any 
immediate reason why the bindings couldn't support QTONLY after a little 
bit of effort. The API doesn't seem to use many (any?) KDE APIs.

I think your best bet is to compile kdeedu with the bindings turned on 
to get some them built and working (with KDE dependencies), then try 
them out and see if they fit your application. If so then let me know, 
then I'll be happy to put some time into fixing up the QTONLY issues and 
making it work without KDE.

cheers,
