64 bit libraries are handled differently between these two. Debian/Ubuntu puts them in /usr/lib (and has a link from /usr/lib64) and CentOS/Fedora/Red Hat/OpenSUSE puts them in /usr/lib64 (/usr/lib is 32 bit). So to reproduce it, you need a distribution that does the same thing as Dons. I only have Kubuntu machines here, so I can't test it. Don, just to be absolutely certain: You do have the zlib devel package installed, right? There should be something like this in your /usr/lib64: shrek> ll /usr/lib64/libz* -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 119778 Mar 18 18:58 /usr/lib64/libz.a lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 20 Mar 19 07:51 /usr/lib64/libz.so -> /lib/libz.so.1.2.3.3 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 15 Feb 25 17:19 /usr/lib64/libzip.so.1 -> libzip.so.1.0.0 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 37904 Nov 12 2007 /usr/lib64/libzip.so.1.0.0 This might be obvious, but I have to ask.
