It seems to me that Mark is saying that this is not even supposed to work with lib32z1-dev installed, but rather you should have zlib1g-dev:i386 installed (and not doing so is user error). I found this surprising (and wonder what lib32z1-dev is actually for then), but as I don't know how these packages are supposed to work, I won't take a position. I am happy enough that I got things working by installing zlib1g-dev:i386. Sami
