How to package 3D Slicer on Ubuntu 16.04, which has been build

Operating system:Ubuntu 16.04
Slicer version:4.11
Expected behavior:To package 3D Slicer on Ubuntu 16.04 for installing Slicer on other Ubuntu computers.
Actual behavior:I cannot find instructions for packaging on Ubuntu in the guidance document :https://slicer.readthedocs.io/en/latest/developer_guide/build_instructions/index.html

You can create a package by navigating to the “Slicer-build” folder and running:
make package

The test&package instructions were indeed missing from the Linux build instructions - I’ve added them now: https://slicer.readthedocs.io/en/latest/developer_guide/build_instructions/linux.html#package-slicer

It is very easy to edit readthedocs documentation - click “Edit on github” button in the top-left corner, make any changes, and submit the pull request.
