Build help - (pretty) please

Hi,

Sorry to pester about building.  I've been mucking around and getting
hounded by other work.  This seems very vanilla and probably an easy answer
- which added to INSTALL doc would help others.

Thanks,
Steve


My understanding of a linux build is (as per INSTALL.qmake)

   1. download kst
   2. install tools (Qt, gsl, pkg-config - and optional 3rd party data
   sources)
   3. set $QTDIR
   4. run build-kst

1) Tools installed

mce at ubuntu18:~/git/kst$ gsl -v
*GSL/4.1.4*

mce at ubuntu18:~/git/kst$ *pkg-config* --version
*0.29.1*


mce at ubuntu18:~/git/kst$ qmake --version
*QMake version 2.01a*
*Using Qt version 4.8.7 in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu*

mce at ubuntu18:~/git/kst$ cat /etc/os-release
NAME="Ubuntu"
VERSION="*18.04.1* LTS (Bionic Beaver)"


2) $QTDIR env. var

mce at ubuntu18:~/git/kst$ head *$QTDIR*/dist/installer-changelog
****************************************************************************
*                        *2.0.4-2*
 *


3) Unmodified kst-plot/kst.git
