[issue11715] Building Python on multiarch Debian and Ubuntu

[Christian Heimes]

Christian Heimes <lists at cheimes.de> added the comment:

Update:

It turns out that zlib1g-dev adds a symlink from /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libz.so to /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libz.so.1 .

$ locate libz.
/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libz.so.1
/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libz.so.1.2.3.4
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libz.a
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libz.so

Perhaps this symlink is missing on Nick's installation. It might be a wise idea to add /lib/MULTIARCH to the library search paths, too.
