Hmm, there are a few docs in the wiki.

Generally, compiling PA is a job for distributors. It requires deep
integration into the distribution, so this is really nothing you can
just do on-the-go by grabbing a tarball and running configure on it. 

Sure we could document this better and in more detailed steps, but I
am not sure who'd we reach with that who isn't already reached, but
who we shouldbe reaching?

Also, this is a Free Software project. Patches always welcome!
