[Coin-symphony] symphony on ubuntu misses glpk libraries

[Ryan O'Neil]

Thanks, the former method works well.  I was hoping to find (or build)
an ubuntu .deb that depends on the existing glpk packages, but it
appears symphony uses 4.22 and the latest ubuntu provides yet is 4.16,
thus the disparity.
