checking for zlib ...
Found ZLIB include files in /usr/include
Found ZLIB libraries in /usr/lib
zlib version 1.2.1.2
Your zlib version is too old, requires version 1.2.3 or later
ZLIB version too old, must be at least version 1.2.x
Well - a "1.2.1.2" version really *is* older than 1.2.3.

According to www.zlib.net "Version 1.2.3 eliminates potential security vulnerabilities in zlib 1.2.1 and 1.2.2, so all users of those versions should upgrade immediately."


The reason you didn't see the problem with the April snapshots
was that zlib wasn't used back then.

... i remember a  problem from September
Different problem, the zlib test in Hobbit back then used some non-standard ZLIB macros.
