gnu make error after successful configure - gnu-make

Question

I am trying to build 'lcms2' static library which is dependent on libtiff. libtiff has again dependency on libjbig. I have successfully configured libtest with the following parameters:
CFLAGS="-fPIC" CXXFLAGS="-fPIC" LIBS="-ljbig" ./configure --prefix=/usr/local --enable-static=yes --enable-shared=no --with-zlib=yes --with-jpeg=yes --with-tiff=yes --with-pic=PIC
The configure reports no error:
checking for TIFF support ...
checking tiff.h usability... yes
checking tiff.h presence... yes
checking for tiff.h... yes
checking tiffio.h usability... yes
checking tiffio.h presence... yes
checking for tiffio.h... yes

checking for tiffconf.h... yes

The when I make the library it throws the following error:

libtool: link: gcc -std=gnu99 -fPIC -o tificc tificc.o xgetopt.o vprf.o ../../src/.libs/liblcms2.a -ltiff -ljpeg -lz -lm
There is no reference to JBIG library in the linking command (I don't remember if it should go before or after - some libraries require both - the reference to libtiff, -ltiff), so jbg_* references can't be resolved. Having LCMS linked does not help you, since JBIG is not linked in, but only referred to, by JBIG.
Add -ljbig to the link command.
Or, manually edit the Makefile and add -ljbig to LIBS (eg. LIBS = -ljbig).
