Add Ubuntu Noble system dependencies to INSTALL guide#69754
Merged
Conversation
The INSTALL guide only covered Debian Bookworm, leaving Ubuntu Noble users to guess the package names that differ between the two (libldap2 vs libldap-2.5-0). It also omitted the build headers needed to compile optional dependencies from source. Document the Noble apt line and the extra build packages so a source install works on both distributions.

The
INSTALLsource-install guide only documented Debian Bookworm apt packages. This adds a dedicated Ubuntu Noble apt section (package names differ, e.g.libldap2vslibldap-2.5-0), the build headers needed to compile optional dependencies from source (python3-dev,libkrb5-dev,gcc,libldap2-dev,libsasl2-dev), a MariaDB compat-package alternative, and a note for installing local postgres/mysql servers.Docs-only change.
