what is this?

ivangoto · Feb 28, 2012

what instruction are you using?

agent205 · Feb 28, 2012

Have you check the path?
It said "cannot find"
Is the path exist?

Maybe this command is wrong? -lz or like agent said, the path might be incorrect...

You need zlib.

Oh yeah, google tells the same

Here is the solution:

Code:

sudo apt-get install zlib1g-dev

Hope you can make it soon

You need zlib, yes, but development package of zlib. Your problem is that the linker (ld) cannot find z library to compile the source.

First, you didn't mention what version of your Ubuntu, 32/64bit? But AFAIK 32bit won't work, so it can only built with 64bit Ubuntu based. Many tutorial how to prepare build environment, so what to do first is to make sure that all component/library are prepared...

If it gets to the linker, then the headers are already there - the development package is most likely installed.

What you need is the 32 bit zlib if you're on 64 bit.

Did you also try this here:

Code:

sudo apt-get install lib32z1-dev

???

Use the script to set up the building enviroment I posted, it works on ubuntu10.04 and 11.10 and also for 64 and 32 bits OSes
