Compilation/deploy notes

The minimum possible list of packages required to compile diff-pdf on Ubuntu are mentioned upstream.

Compile the binary using heroku/heroku:22 docker image. Pull the diff-pdf binary and move it to the binaries/ directory.

Once the app is deployed using the diff-pdf buildpack, there might still be some libraries that don't get installed. Find them out with ldd /path/to/diff-pdf on a running Heroku instance, and add these packages to the PACKAGES list.
