[GNC] Build scripts for ubuntu added to the wiki

[david whiting]

Apologies, yes, that was sloppiness on my part. I was so focussed on
making sure that the scripts would reliably build on different
releases of ubuntu, I didn't add the last line to actually install it.
I rectified that in the scripts on the wiki. Note that in future to
build and install newer versions, you won't need to run the whole
script because the dependencies will already be there, and rather than
git clone, you will want to git pull. I'll add another script for that
to the wiki.

I noticed the "sudo make install" in your published versions on the wiki this morning and went back into the build dir and ran the "sudo make install" and it installed ok in /opt/gnucash.  I'm assuming from this I need to add the "sudo make install" to the script for it to build and install in future?
