Add basic install documentation in the Wiki page about ginger HOT 3 CLOSED

@jdgregson How did you installed Kimchi from source code?

I ask because there's an important thing related to installation process when executing "./autogen.sh". If you omit the "--system" the Kimchi files will be installed in a different path from the default by deb package of Ginger (or it's the opposite).

I suggest you to do the following. In the Kimchi source code path, go to plugins directory and clone the Ginger source code from github, and then, install Ginger using the same steps you used to build Kimchi.

Guess it's too late to answer this issue now, but ....

It's unfortunate that you had trouble finding the install docs. They should be available somewhere at the Wiki page, easily accessible. We're going through massive changes for the next release of both Ginger and Kimchi and I'll make sure to include clear install instructions in the Wiki page for this next release in the next weeks.

The .deb package you installed has install instructions inside it in the README file.

Documentation was updated with install instructions using distro packages or source code:
