Sorry about that. Ubuntu 11.10.
I used
Plone-4.1.2-UnifiedInstaller.tar
which installed o.k. I'm serving a webpage on my LAN.
I did a search on files named "python" on my machine.
There are 23 not including the ones in the Plone
buildout-cache in my account. Seems like a lot of
applications install their own copy of python.
There are also
./usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libz.so
./usr/lib/libz.so
which, I believe, are the zlib libraries.
I've read that you can reinstall python with configure
using the "--with-zlib" option, but configure isn't in
/usr/local/Plone/Python-2.6/lib/python2.6/config
I think the python interpreter for the command line is
the one in /usr/bin/python. Would this be the one I
reconfigure for zlib? Should I simply install python from
Python-3.2.2.tgz?

How do I reinstall python to include zlib?
Which OS are you on? Linux? BSD?
How did you install Plone?
First I'd check if there's a module shadowing the builtin zlib module -
i.e. if you've got a local file called "zlib.py" which is getting
imported by mistake.
Fairly much all *nix systems will have a python installation out of the
box - it looks like you need python2.6
I've never had a missing zlib module - but it's possible that it might
be missing if you don't have the zlib/deflate headers installed - if
they're not available then I'd try installing them and then reinstalling
the package you started with.
