I was able to accomplish this by looking at a stock install done in a VM using Ubuntu 16.04
git clone -b release/4.2
https://github.com/tvheadend/tvheadend.git
cd tvheadend
./configure --disable-ffmpeg_static
make
make install
Other dependencies found from stock install
apt install tvheadend

How or where can you get these other 3 configuration files?
