A kind gentleman emailed me directly my solution. I am posting it here so
people will find the solution in the archive in the future.
In my case, I needed to install the zlib1-devel.rpm which is on disk-1 of
the Mandrake installation set. It can also be downloaded directly from their
web-site.
Thankyou!
Steve B.
