Firstly, you should follow Richard's updated correction to my message in terms of the library that you need to get zlib. IMHO, if CMake cannot find zlib, trying to install zlib from source is perhaps the wrong way to go. You're adding one more thing that you'll need to compile. You should instead be trying to figure out (a) if you've installed zlib correctly and (b) why CMake cannot find it. I suspect the Find*.cmake for zlib is well-used and well-tested, so I think it should be ok. Of course, I don't know why there are HDF5 patched versions of Find*.cmake for zlib...
