Re: [xml] Error building libxml2

["William M. Brack" <wbrack mmm com hk>]

OK.  Then, first, understand that the error message is not from
libxml2, but rather from the system loader.  It is saying that it is
not able to find libz.so within your default library configuration. 
The default location for libz.so is /usr/lib.  Try
    whereis libz.so
to confirm where it is on your system.  If it is not within
/usr/lib, then try to chase down why it's directory is not within
your default library path (possible ldconfig problem?).
