Comment(by k...@…):

 FWIW, debian unpackage the internal  expat, freetype, icclib, ijs, jasper,
 jbig2dec, lcms, libpng, tiff, zlib.  i.e. they don't include those in
 their dfsg source.version.  They then use the following, apparently passed
 to make on the command line
 {{{
 SHARE_FT=1 SHARE_JPEG=1 SHARE_LIBPNG=1 SHARE_LIBTIFF=1 SHARE_ZLIB=1
 SHARE_JBIG2=1 SHARE_JPX=1 SHARE_LCMS=1 SHARE_EXPAT=1 LCMSSRCDIR=/usr
 }}}

 Clearly, with removing the directories the SHARE_JPEG and SHARE_PNG, and
 presumably SHARE_JPX, are redundant.

 I've think I've got through lcms (LCMSSRCDIR seems to be needed to find
 the headers), but it's very much one step forward and then one back, at
 the moment my installed random version of freetype is causing the build to
 fail because one or more definitions have changed.  Maybe I did something
 wrong there, it's definitely pulling in the freetype system headers.

 I understand your thinking on zlib, but I'm not sure if all the readers
 will remember (or even know, if they are using another distro, as people
 used to - try BLFS before jumping in to LFS) which version of zlib they
 installed.

 I'm going back to try to "build with one system lib at a time" (for lcms,
 expat, freetype), to confirm instructions for some or all of these.

 After all of this, there will be the 'make cups' and 'sed to fix the build
 if gtk+2 is not installed' issues.
