[Ubuntu] GDAL Packaging

[Jerome Villeneuve Larouche]

Hi,

Here are the two tutorials to set up your environment using Vagrant and 
build a package.

http://trac.osgeo.org/ubuntugis/wiki/EnvironmentSetup
http://trac.osgeo.org/ubuntugis/wiki/VagrantBuild

If you have any questions do not hesitate, they're probably not perfect.

Thank you
