Paul,

Try running

    ldd  /usr/local/lib/python2.5/lib-dynload/zlib.so

I'll wager that libz.so is not found.  Either rebuild Python using the -R
flag to hard-code the location of various low-level libraries in Python's
.so files or set LD_LIBRARY_PATH at runtime so the dynamic linker can find
them.

One other thing (well, two).  python-dev@python.org is not the correct place
for these sorts of questions.  Try [EMAIL PROTECTED] instead.  Also,
note that many of us who might read this are at PyCon (http://us.pycon.org/)
which starts this morning and continues through the middle of next week.
Response rates from this list will be reduced.
