Problem with Perl Module

Hi,

i have an obsolete version running of this mysql module. So i wanted to
update with the new module. But I am getting following error message =
while
trying to "make test". I already tried to use the Makefile with the lib
..switch. Didn`t work...

This is the error message i am getting:

linux:# make test
rm -f blib/arch/auto/DBD/mysql/mysql.so
LD_RUN_PATH=3D"/usr/lib/mysql:/lib" /usr/bin/perl myld cc -shared =
dbdimp.o
mysql.o -o blib/arch/auto/DBD/mysql/mysql.so -L/usr/lib/mysql
-lmysqlclient -lz -lcrypt -lnsl -lm
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i586-suse-linux/3.3.3/../../../../i586-suse -linux/bin/l=
d:
cannot find -lz
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status


An error occurred while linking the DBD::mysql driver. The error
message seems to indicate that you don't have a libz.a,
or a libz.so. This is typically resolved by:

1.) You may try to remove the -lz or -lgz flag from the libs list
by using the --libs switch for "perl Makefile.PL".
2.) On Red Hat Linux install libz-devel
3.) On other systems, please contact the mailing list

Msql-Mysql-modules@lists.mysql.com

For further hints, see INSTALL.html, section Linker flags.
make: *** [blib/arch/auto/DBD/mysql/mysql.so] Error 1

Obviously, the third point seemed worth for you to follow. Have you
considered first two as well? It really doesn't mean much more than to
replace "Red Hat" with Suse. :-(
