You'll then have to recompile Python to take advantage of them. Make sure you bring in other -dev packages you might want Python to be able to use, too, such as libexpat1-dev, libdb4.8-dev, libncurses5-dev and libreadline6-dev (using the Python interpreter without readline is painful!). It's a bit of an annoyance, but probably inevitable given the staggeringly enormous number of libs the likes of Ubuntu deliver. If you want to compile something from source that relies on the library you need both packages. You want zlib1g (which will certainly be installed already) and, as Luper mentioned, the вЂdevelopmentвЂ™ package which is zlib1g-dev.Дebian-based Linux distros split each C library into a separate runtime binary package and a development package which delivers the headers for inclusion at compile time. You don't want zlibc, it's something else completely. Where should zlib be located to work properly? $ find / -name zlib Thu Oct 28 18:43:17 ~/sources So now, Python2.7 should be the default version, but it still fails. I noticed I'd added an extra step, so I refactored it: llrwxrwxrwx 1 root 24 Oct 28 18:33 /usr/bin/python -> /usr/local/bin/python2.7 Lrwxrwxrwx 1 root 9 Oct 28 15:13 /usr/bin/python2 -> python2.6 Lrwxrwxrwx 1 root 24 Oct 28 18:26 /usr/bin/python2.7 -> /usr/local/bin/python2.7 I checked my permissions: lrwxrwxrwx 1 root 18 Oct 28 18:19 /usr/bin/python -> /usr/bin/python2.7 Д«ut setuptools still won't install: $ sh setuptools-0.6c11-py2.7.egg 19824 files and directories currently installed.)

I then installed zlib: $ sudo aptitude install zlibc Zipimport.ZipImportError: can't decompress data zlib not available Sudo aptitude install zlib1g-dev libreadline6-dev libdb4.8-dev libncurses5-devДЄfter installation, I attempted to install setuptools.py $ sh setuptools-0.6c11-py2.7.egg Make sure you install these packages and then recompile Python: The package manager apt installs all of a package's dependencies before it installs the package.I can't seem to install zlib properly, I installed Python from source on Ubuntu10.4 The zlib1g package should be installed automatically when you install libpng12-0, because it is one of the libpng12-0 package's dependencies. Or using sudo apt-get install libpng12-0 from a terminal.

Or from here libpng12-0 by clicking 'available on the Software Center'. You can install libpng from the Software Center by searching libpng and choosing 'PNG Library - runtime'. Programs installed via Software Center or apt will also be updated automatically by Ubuntu's Software Updater. The Ubuntu Software Center searches Ubuntu's online repositories, which are generally guaranteed to work.

#ZLIB DEV UBUNTU DOWNLOAD#

Try to get out of the Windows mentality, which is to search google and download an installer. What you were likely attempting to do was install from source, which is only recommended if you know what you're doing. If at all possible, you should try to install programs via Ubuntu Software Center. It installs, manages, upgrades, and removes programs. Ubuntu uses a thing called apt, which is a package manager. I'm really new so I don't understand a lot of these things and it's kinda scary. Do I need to get root or something? I remember seeing people say root before, but I don't know if it is relevant. I first tried installing libpng and the terminal was like zlib isn't installed so I was like ok, I'll just get zlib but permission is denied. I did download both packages, did the tar xf thingy on the download, and looked at the README files for insight on installing the software. This is just one of many things I need to get on here but I think I need to first start off with this. Can someone help me install the PNG library, libpng and zlib. However, I'm having a lot of trouble trying to install the numerous packages that aren't included natively on Ubuntu.

#ZLIB DEV UBUNTU CODE#

I got installed it because my school uses a lot of Linux type stuff in my school's Computer Science program so I figured I would use Ubuntu on my own machine and just do my code from there instead of the computer labs.
