Re: Built 1.8.1 from source: "libz.so.1: no version information available"

Hi Philip,

Thank you for the reply. I think you are correct about it being a zlib version problem. But the error with "/lib64/libz.so.1" happens whether I build svn with the dependencies or without. The reason I am attempting to build it with the static libraries (which are fetched with the included "get-deps.sh" script) is to prevent it from trying to use "/lib64/libz.so.1" which appears to have zlib version problem. However ldd shows my svn using "/lib64/libz.so.1" no matter what I do.

Cheers,
Randy

I think that is caused by using one version of zlib during the build and
a different zlib once installed.

The build below shows you using your own zlib in /tmp-build/zlib so the
system zlib is the wrong one.

Do you need to build all those dependencies?  What's wrong the system
dependencies?  You probably only need to build serf.  The 'tmp' in your
prefix is suspicious, there is not usually anything temporary about
these dependencies.

To fix thing either build against the system libraries or ensure that
the installed binaries pickup your own dependencies.
