I suggest to build an official installation guide for Debian/Ubuntu
in the GitHub wiki (which could be moved later into the official
documentation).

It would be also useful to show how to use Sympa with Nginx, which
is the way I'm doing it.

This would also help us to identify problems with the packages
itself.
