SVN 1.4 zlib dependency problem

hi all,

I have a problem building version 1.4.0: ./configure halts complaining 
that zlib.h is missing, event though I have downloaded + untarred the 
dependency tarball into apparently the right place (ie the 
subversion-1.4.0 dir).
The tarballs are:
subversion-1.4.0.tar.gz
subversion-deps-1.4.0.tar.gz

./configure eventually spits out..

checking zlib.h usability... no
checking zlib.h presence... no
checking for zlib.h... no
configure: error: subversion requires zlib

What should I do?

cheers,
Rob

Alternatively, you could install your operating system's
zlib/zlib-devel packages.  Almost every OS ships zlib in some form
these days.

Rob,

I just stumbled into the same pitfall :-(

But luckily the solution is rather simple:

cd zlib
../configure --prefix=...
make install
cd ..
../configure --prefix=<the_same_as_above>

That's all...


Hope this helps,

Thomas
