[Pdns-users] Proper compiling documentation

Hi there.

Does anyone have proper documentation how to build powerdns from source? 
So far I was able to build powerdns auth server based on documentation here:
https://github.com/PowerDNS/pdns

Based on this bootstrap/configure and make - end result was:
> Libraries have been installed in:
>    /usr/local/lib/pdns


There I've found this:
libbindbackend.la
libbindbackend.so
libgmysqlbackend.la
libgmysqlbackend.so
libpipebackend.la
libpipebackend.so
librandombackend.la
librandombackend.so

And what now? What do I do with these? How do I get this:
> # ls -la /etc/powerdns/
> total 44K
> drwxr-xr-x  3 root root 4.0K Oct  6 08:40 .
> drwxr-xr-x 96 root root  12K Oct  6 08:40 ..
> -rw-r--r--  1 root root    0 Oct  6 08:39 bindbackend.conf
> -rw-------  1 root root  16K Oct  6 08:39 pdns.conf
> drwxr-xr-x  2 root root 4.0K Oct  6 08:39 pdns.d
> -rw-r--r--  1 root root 7.4K Jan  7  2017 recursor.conf

Those are just binaries, I need folder generated in /etc/ and startup 
scripts. I couldn't find any related docs for this. Can anyone help? I'm 
trying to achieve this under Debian 8.
