Build Instructions for Ubuntu target

// These instructions are taken from https://github.com/nebula-chat-fork/clients/blob/master/.github/workflows/tdesktop_linux.yml with modifications from https://github.com/telegramdesktop/tdesktop/blob/dc8abc74ed4d72a73315550b91283ff1f2e44199/docs/building-cmake.md

1. Install Ubuntu 14.04 into virtualbox vm with 22GB+ storage on disk
2. In a terminal,

$ sudo apt-get install git 
$ ssh-keygen -C i2gram_build_vm_github_key
Generating public/private rsa key pair.
Enter file in which to save the key (/home/user/.ssh/id_rsa): /home/user/.ssh/i2gram_build_vm_github_key
$ cat ~/.ssh/i2gram_build_vm_github_key.pub
ssh-rsa ... i2gram_build_vm_github_key

3. Paste the public key into GitHub's https://github.com/settings/ssh/new with the title i2pgram_build_vm_github_key.
4. In a terminal,

$ cd && mkdir git && cd git
$ git clone [email protected]:i2pgram/i2pgram-clients.git
$ sudo bash

cfgFile="/etc/dpkg/dpkg.cfg.d/no_man"
sudo touch $cfgFile
p() {
  sudo echo "path-exclude=/usr/share/$1/*" >> $cfgFile
}
p man
p locale
p doc
