Update Ubuntu/Debian optional packages install command #988

Closed pitkajuh closed 3 months ago

pitkajuh commented 4 months ago

The original command contains packages which are virtual (see https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-binary.html#virtual-packages). Running the command gives the following message

Note, selecting 'libglu1-mesa-dev' instead of 'xlibmesa-glu-dev'
Note, selecting 'libgraphviz-dev' instead of 'graphviz-dev'
Note, selecting 'libgsl-dev' instead of 'libgsl0-dev`

I replaced the virtual package names with the names of the actual packages. Also I moved libmysqlclient-dev to the end of the list, so it will be easier for Debian users to replace it with libmariadb-dev and run the command.

Thanks a lot ! Could you verify if we also need to add libtbb-dev to the list? Apparently is required starting from 6.30.06, see https://root-forum.cern.ch/t/built-in-libraries-of-6-30-06/58838/6
