Yes, you appear to be correct, I did not need to do that when I
originally built for 14.04 so something must have changed, or perhaps
I did not start from a fresh Ubuntu install.  I suggest you correct
the wiki yourself then you can take the glory(?) for finding the
solution.  The point about a wiki is that anyone can make
additions/corrections.
