Could someone please educate me on zlib?
I can compile kernel 2.4.21 with MTD updated from tarball 20031021 with jff2
with no errors.
But when I try and compile the utils from the same tar ball, using the same
kernel headers I get error file not found zlib.h.
I can compile the utils against the kernel headers on my host 2.4.20 without
error. But I guess then the binaries will not run on the target machine?
The difference appears to be linux/zlib v1.1.3 or /zlib v1.1.4 but I am not
sure what I should use to get utils that run.
Thanks
David

Do you have the zlib-devel package installed? Are you compiling natively
or cross-compiling?

I am cross compiling - well actually it is from pentium to i386.
I do not know about zlib-devel, which probably means I don't have it.
But the kernel code includes include/linux/zlib.h which is included by
/fs/jffs2/compr_zlib.c and this compiles OK. So I assumed I had all that was
needed.
However in the util tree compr_zlib.c is looking for include/zlib.h, and I
belive a different version.
If I need to get zlib-devel can you give a reference to where I get it from as
I have seen confusing alternatives.
Thanks
David
