That is a very dangerous option ... tried it but uninstalls a lot of
packages practically the whole ubuntu-desktop.


You could just download the binary package, extract the module and place it in your PYTHON_HOME. On my system that is:

/usr/lib64/python2.6/lib-dynload/zlibmodule.so

I'm sorry I do not know how to do that for Ubuntu.

cheers,
