I've just been trying to compile some code that makes use of Zlib and when I try to compile it from within Lazarus I get the following error

Error: Import library not found for libz

at the linking stage. It's the only thing stopping it from linking.

Is this a bug in FPC 2.2.1 or am I missing the libz.o file?

I'm using the snapshot from 27th of Jan 2008, if that makes any difference.

The zlib unit simply links to the zlib library  (libz.so libz.dll). It seems
that you are missing that one. IOW it is different from the borland one that does have a zlib implementation

The paszlib package provides an compatible (though older) zlib
implementation in pascal.


Ok, but shouldn't it work with both?

Are there any plans to update paszlib to a more recent version of zlib?
