[Kimchi-devel] Minor Issue with Deb packages on Ubuntu 16.4LTS

When installing the latest Wok/Ginger/Kimchi to a fresh MINIMAL install 
you can run into a dependency loop with nginx where apt complains that 
nginx is not configured but if you go in and try an nginx install then 
that complains that ginger is not properly configured.

such as:

Errors were encountered while processing:
  nginx-core
  nginx
  wok

   Package nginx is not configured yet.
   Package nginx-core which provides nginx is not configured yet.

Seems to happen whether you start with Wok or start with Ginger.

The trick is to make sure nginx is installed prior to starting on the 
Wok/Ginger/Kimchi package set (and if you started already, you have to 
remove everything THEN install nginx THEN start again with Wok, Ginger etc)

Obviously upgrades to an existing installation work fine as would a more 
complete Ubuntu install that includes nginx.

I'm not up on apt packaging but maybe check for nginx on each package 
(assuming that is possible), even if that particular one didn't 
necessarily need it.
