[Qemu-devel] Configure fails

[Qemu-devel] Configure fails

[Nigel Horne]

The latest configure incorrectly tells me that I don't have zlib 
installed. I do:

njh@packard:~/src/qemu/trunk$ ./configure
WARNING: "gcc" looks like gcc 4.x
Looking for gcc 3.x
Found "gcc-3.4"

Error: zlib check failed
Make sure to have the zlib libs and headers installed.

njh@packard:~/src/qemu/trunk$ dpkg -l | fgrep -i zlib

This is a show stopper :-(

Could you check what error does

gcc-3.4 file.c -lz

give you for a file.c containing the lines

#include <zlib.h>
int main(void) { zlibVersion(); return 0; }

I can't see the reason this would fail and a system I checked with the
same version packages as yours doesn't have this problem.

jh@packard:~$ gcc-3.4 file.c -lz
njh@packard:~$ cat file.c
#include <zlib.h>
int main(void) { zlibVersion(); return 0; }
njh@packard:~$
