Can anybody suggest a possible fix?

Thanks in advance folks!!

I am trying to install the DBI driver for mysql..i got an error which
 the INSTALL.html file says can be fixed by:

"If this is the case for you, install an RPM archive like libz-devel,
 libgz-devel, zlib-devel or gzlib-devel or something similar."

Can anybody clue me in on what the above pakages (libz-devel, libgz-devel, zlib-devel, gzlib-devel) do? how do I install? I am on
suse 9.0


Thanks.

It's asking for the libz compression library. If you don't already have it, see <http://www.gzip.org/zlib/>.
