Obviously, because there aren't available binary packages (from start page of named projects):

Download a precompiled binary or build from source

In case you are running on ... another Unix-like OS, you will need to use the posix-local target. It assumes that you already have all the build dependencies installed beforehand and will generate a tarball with the specification of local-MACHINENAME in the static-build/ folder.

Not sure if you found another solution or not, but I've recently compiled a static version of wkhtmltopdf (version from Github) with the custom Qt modules. Mailing list thread is here: Static Build - SmartOS Base64 14.1.0
