On Linux distributions, software is installed using packages, not
installers. Therefore you should think it in terms of building a
package, not writing an installer.

If the package includes .desktop files in /etc/skel/Desktop, this should
achieve what you want to do. However this sounds quite intrusive, and
having them in /usr/share/applications so that they appear in the menus
should be enough.
