Hello.
We are sorry but we cannot help you. This mailing list is to work on
developing Python (adding new features to Python itself and fixing bugs);
if you're having problems learning, understanding or using Python, please
find another forum. Probably python-list/comp.lang.python mailing list/news
group is the best place; there are Python developers who participate in it;
you may get a faster, and probably more complete, answer there. See
http://www.python.org/community/ for other lists/news groups/fora. Thank
you for understanding.

Seems yoy don't have zlib or haven't had zlib headers when you
compiled python. Install zlib and zlib-dev packages and recompile
python.

Programmers don't die, they just GOSUB without RETURN.
