Merge #15518: doc: Remove ppa from linux build instructions

Browse Source 
fa3148aacb doc: Remove ppa from linux build instructions (MarcoFalke)

Pull request description:

  bdb (5.x) is provided by the vanilla Debian/Ubuntu package manager.

  If someone needs bdb4.8, they can use `./depends` or `./contrib/install_db4.sh`.

  I don't think we need a forth way to install bdb. Those ppa instructions only leads to confusion for debian users: Closes #3757

BerkeleyDB is required for the wallet.
**For Ubuntu only:** db4.8 packages are available [here](https://launchpad.net/~bitcoin/+archive/bitcoin).
You can add the repository and install using the following commands:
sudo apt-get install software-properties-common
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:bitcoin/bitcoin
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libdb4.8-dev libdb4.8++-dev
Ubuntu and Debian have their own libdb-dev and libdb++-dev packages, but these will install
BerkeleyDB 5.1 or later. This will break binary wallet compatibility with the distributed executables, which
are based on BerkeleyDB 4.8. If you do not care about wallet compatibility,
pass `--with-incompatible-bdb` to configure.
Otherwise, you can build from self-compiled `depends` (see above).
