Please see https://salsa.debian.org/cryptocoin-team/xmrig/-/commit/fa8aaf366f7168be3d30ba9c1d7e5fdaf9bb11bb to get an idea of what is to exclude. Please use the Debian replacements for those libraries. adl and libethash are not yet available (see also #1034528), so please build with WITH_KAWPOW=OFF and WITH_ADL=OFF.
I looked into this when I first started packaging xmrig. Unfortunately, for many of these third party libraries, Debian's packaging of them won't work because the version included in xmrig is specially modified and contains lots of xmrig-specific functions that aren't easy to work around. For example, many of argon2's functions directly have xmrig in the name, and work a bit differently to those of the original project. The source also directly includes headers that exist in the original source but not a packaged version, and which are also modified specifically for xmrig. If I were to get rid of all the third party libraries that don't work easily with Debian's packaged versions, there wouldn't be much xmrig functionality left.
