That part of the documentation describes how to set up a PostgreSQL
instance from the sources.  So that is what a packager might read.  If
you want to know how a package sets things up, you need to read the
package's documentation.

We could document the setup of popular packages in the main
documentation, but we currently don't, and we would have to do it more
consistently across platforms.
