Good - I think it will get outdated quickly and history shows that such content does not get well maintained. If we had to do anything along these lines, it could be to have a small chapter which lists all the QGIS dependencies along with a pointer to the upstream build instructions for each dependency. At least that should be more easily maintained and does not duplicate effort from upstream projects. John have you considered just running QGIS in docker - its probably a much easier approach than the method you have embarked upon...
