Public bug reported:
System installed version of Python has a defective zlib library:
Python 3.5 seems to be missing this module:
sal@gruntyman:~/workspace/ladygeek$ python3.5
Python 3.5.0 (default, Sep 15 2015, 21:54:38)
[GCC 4.9.2] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import zlib
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: No module named 'zlib'
>>>
but Python 2.7 seems to be fine
sal@gruntyman:~/workspace/ladygeek$ python
Python 2.7.10 (default, Oct 14 2015, 16:09:02)
[GCC 5.2.1 20151010] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import zlib
>>>
and so does Python 3.4
sal@gruntyman:~/workspace/ladygeek$ python3.4
Python 3.4.3+ (default, Oct 14 2015, 16:03:50)
[GCC 5.2.1 20151010] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import zlib
