[jira] [Commented] (MESOS-10240) configure: error: cannot find libz

["Ryan Carsten Schmidt (Jira)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-10240?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17748910#comment-17748910 ] 

Ryan Carsten Schmidt commented on MESOS-10240:
----------------------------------------------

For example, the attached patch changes it to check for just one of zlib's functions, and this works.

Also, this bug report assumes bug MESOS-10241 has already been addressed; if not, that problem will be encountered first.

> I don't think [the zlib configure check|https://github.com/apache/mesos/blob/8856d6fba11281df898fd65b0cafa1e20eb90fe8/configure.ac#L2301] is correct. According to [autoconf documentation|https://www.gnu.org/savannah-checkouts/gnu/autoconf/manual/autoconf-2.71/html_node/Libraries.html#index-AC_005fCHECK_005fLIB-1], the second argument of {{AC_CHECK_LIB}} is a function name, not a comma-separated list of function names. It also says {{AC_CHECK_LIB}} "should be avoided in some common cases", suggesting {{AC_SEARCH_LIBS}} be used instead.
