openssh bugs - Sep 2003 - [Bug 654] config throws an error due to missing zlib (but zlib present)

http://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=654

           Summary: config throws an error due to missing zlib (but zlib
                    present)
           Product: Portable OpenSSH
           Version: 3.7.1p1
          Platform: ix86
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: Build system
        AssignedTo: openssh-bugs at mindrot.org
        ReportedBy: simone at piyosailing.com


I just follow the INSTALL instructions:
uncompress
./configure

but i receive this error:
checking for deflate in -lz... no
configure: error: *** zlib missing - please install first or check config.log 
***

but I've already an openssh server running on the machine (but installed
from
an RPM) and also I've the latest version of both openssl
(openssl-0.9.6b-32.7)
and zlib (zlib-1.1.4-8.7x).

So I cannot run the makefile and so install the new relase

Do you have the zlib-devel package installed?  -devel packages are generally
required for
compilation.

I don't have the -devel lib.
I'll download it and try

Did this fix the problem?  I've tried re-building from source several times
on
Linux/RPM-based distros with no problems with zlib on 5 platforms.

Yes, with the -devel package it worked fine.
Thank you
