in reply to Error installing DBD mysql on linux

libz is used for data compression. It is unlikely, if you did a default install of linux, that you don't have libz installed. I would install that, then try again.

Being right, does not endow the right to be rude; politeness costs nothing.
Being unknowing, is not the same as being stupid.
Expressing a contrary opinion, whether to the individual or the group, is more often a sign of deeper thought than of cantankerous belligerence.
Do not mistake your goals as the only goals; your opinion as the only opinion; your confidence as correctness. Saying you know better is not the same as explaining you know better.
