server wont run because zlib 1.2.11 isn't found

[JonKohler]

Looks like this package was recently-ish updated: https://zlib.net/ and the link being used isn't a perma-link'd on the zlib site

Other projects have addressed it like this: https://github.com/ApolloAuto/apollo/pull/14387 https://github.com/ApolloAuto/apollo/issues/14374

zlib 1.2.12

March 27, 2022

Version 1.2.12 has these key improvements over 1.2.11:

Fix a deflate bug when using the Z_FIXED strategy that can result in out-of-bound accesses.
Fix a deflate bug when the window is full in deflate_stored().
Speed up CRC-32 computations by a factor of 1.5 to 3.
Use the hardware CRC-32 instruction on ARMv8 processors.
Speed up crc32_combine() with powers of x tables.
Add crc32_combine_gen() and crc32_combine_op() for fast combines.

I was able to work around this by modifying

/home/jkohler/optane/git/.cache/bazel/_bazel_root/839f7ebfb0d1ed872ddd5423553c6d10/external/io_bazel_rules_go/go/private/repositories.bzl.

to look like this in the net_zlib section ... brutal hack but it worked

    if "net_zlib" not in native.existing_rules():
        native.bind(
            name = "zlib",
            actual = "@net_zlib//:zlib",
        )
        http_archive(
            name = "net_zlib",
            build_file = "@com_google_protobuf//:third_party/zlib.BUILD",
            sha256 = "91844808532e5ce316b3c010929493c0244f3d37593afd6de04f71821d5136d9",
            strip_prefix = "zlib-1.2.12",
            urls = ["https://zlib.net/zlib-1.2.12.tar.gz"],
        )
