Ezio Melotti <ezio.melo...@gmail.com> added the comment: I don't know why it's not installed here, but I didn't remove it intentionally. "here" is a Linux machine with Ubuntu 8.04.3 (hardy) LTS. One reason might be that I just have a limited number of program installed and zlib is probably a dependency of some popular packages and hence it's found in most of the machines.
When I compiled Python I got this message, so I think that Python expects zlib to be already there: Python build finished, but the necessary bits to build these modules were not found: _dbm _gdbm _hashlib _sqlite3 _ssl _tkinter bz2 zlib ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue6499> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
