I see. Then my problem is not knowing how to tell the build to use the zlib I built. When I build svn and point to the location of my zlib prefix (see command in original post), svn still looks for "/lib64/libz.so.1". Also I noticed that "libz.so.1" doesn't exist in my zlib prefix location (/tmp-build/zlib)

The location is "tmp" because I am not trying to replace zlib on this system, I'm  trying to package zlib with my build of subversion. This way subversion is deploy-able to different machines and less reliant on local libraries.

Right. My attempts to make them both use the same version have been unsuccessful. If I don't build zlib manually, subversion still seems to use a newer version of zlib than the one I have locally (and results in the same error). If I do build zlib manually, I can't seem to tell subversion to use the one I built. svn still looks for "/lib64/libz.so.1"

In any case, thanks for sharing your thoughts, Philip. I really apprecaite the help.

You are using shared libraries.  --enable-static merely enables static
libraries to be produced, it does not cause the build to use them.

The only problem you have shown is using different zlibs at build time
and after install.  Either use the system zlib during the build or
arrange for your zlib to be used after install.
