Prepare for make

Had to install some packages from apt, replace others, find some ousted from ubuntu via web... Here goes nothing:

$ sudo apt install build-essential g++ make libbz2-dev zlib1g-dev libproj-dev libnova-dev nettle-dev libjpeg-dev qtbase5-dev qt5-default libpng-dev 

Download libjasper-dev libjasper1 via web. This search-mirror points to canonical if I'm not wrong:

$ sudo dpkg -i libjasper-dev.{...}.deb
$ sudo dpkg -i libjasper1.{...}.deb
$ export QT_SELECT=qt5
$ make
$ make install
