asterisk users - Jul 2004 - Minimum install required for Asterisk + voicemail & SIP friends from mysql

I have been trying to install asterisk with MySQL for
voicemail and SIP friends. 

Using redhat 9 I am installing all the base components
required for asterisk, mysql, mysql server and
mysql-devel.

If I do a make clean, make install without enabling
the mysql options in the /apps/Makefile and
/channels/Makefile all goes well and make completes. 

If I enable the options Make fails, when it gets to 
  -L/usr/lib/mysql -lmysqlclient -lz

with an error /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lz

Now If I do the same after installing Redhat 9 doing a
complete install make completes successfully.

Ideally I would (I am sure others would too) like to
install the minimum required. 

Help/advice will be greatly appreciated.

Umar.
