Hi... See the "README" file in the Batteries distribution:
**** Requirements **** You will need ... * Camlzip (http://cristal.inria.fr/~xleroy/software.html#camlzip) ( Note: By default, the distribution of Camlzip is note quite sufficient for actual use. We provide the missing files in directory camlzip/ .) ... Maybe that explanation could be a bit more thorough... (and I think "note quite" should be "not quite" ).
