Update Ubuntu build instructions for Ubuntu 16.04 #672

Closed mDuo13 closed 1 year ago

mDuo13 commented 4 years ago

Building rippled 1.3.1 requires gcc 7 or higher, but Ubuntu 16.04 ships with gcc 5.3.

To build rippled on Ubuntu 16.04, users will have to install gcc 7, possibly from a PPA. Investigate, test, and update the Ubuntu build instructions to call out the extra steps for building on Ubuntu 16.04, which AFAIK we'll continue to support until early 2021 since that's when Canonical's support transitions from "Maintenance updates" to "Extended security maintenance for customers"

Ubuntu 16.04 is past EOL and no longer supported, so this is not needed
