The package from Ubuntu does not contain a .desktop file to put
into /usr/share/applications/, so a menu item will never be created.
There is a /usr/share/menu file, so it would appear in the standard
Debian menu but Mint probably drops that.

Create a new launcher and put that on your panel, pointing
at /usr/bin/devede and use /usr/share/pixmaps/devede.xpm as the icon.

Just right click on the panel and choose Add to panel, custom
application launcher.

Then file a bug and get upstream to include a proper .desktop file.
