I have zlib-1.2.1.1-i486-1. Whether that is zlib-devel or zlib-dev I have no
idea, and not sure how to find out.

Sort of figured out the MySQL problem, but now I get an error when I run
'make'. This is not a biggie, but the other problem I need to get resolved.

Thanks

Check if you have zlib-devel or zlib-dev package installed. You need this to
be able to compile support into other applications.

No idea how you do this on slackware.

Also try specifying the path to zlib:

--with-zlib=/usr for example.

No idea about slackware. Do a search or ask a slackware list/forum.

Install the mysql-dev/devel &/or mysql-client packages most likely.

Or point it to the right directory. You need to point it to the base of the
mysql package. Eg if mysql is installed in /usr/local/mysql (so binaries are
under /usr/local/mysql/bin & libs are in
/usr/local/mysql/lib) then

--with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql
