Hi, I am facing the following issue while trying to build servo in development mode with the command ./mach build --release
Running virtualenv with interpreter /usr/local/bin/python2.7 Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/virtualenv.py", line 17, in <module> import zlib ImportError: No module named zlib Python virtualenv failed to execute properly. Following are the ways I have tried to solve it: - There was post in StackOverflow which said this was due to Ubuntu changing where the shared libraries are located in order to support multiple architectures. I tried the following command: cd /lib sudo ln -s x86_64-linux-gnu/libz.so.1 libz.so I received an error as follows: ln: failed to create symbolic link ‘libz.so’: File exists - There is a GitHub page which addresses these issues: https://github.com/yyuu/pyenv/wiki/Common-build-problems I tried the following commands from there, still the problem persists: sudo apt-get install -y make build-essential libssl-dev zlib1g-dev libbz2-dev \ libreadline-dev libsqlite3-dev wget curl llvm libncurses5-dev - I have even reinstalled the Python from one of the links in Stackoverflow hoping that zlib would get installed with the new Python version but it didn’t work Could you please let me know how I can effectively solve this issue.
