Compilation failure: zlib.h: No such file or directory #26

Hi,

The compilation was terminated with warnings:

fm.c:30:10: fatal error: zlib.h: No such file or directory
 #include <zlib.h>
          ^~~~~~~~
compilation terminated.
make[2]: *** [Makefile:65: ../../build/fm.o] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory '/home/pengxi/softwares/gem3-mapper/src/system'
make[1]: *** [Makefile:71: system] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/pengxi/softwares/gem3-mapper/src'
make: *** [Makefile:33: release] Error 2

I searched for some solutions online and installed zlib1g-dev package but the problem still did not go away. Is there any other solutions?

Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Emmett

Hi,

In principle, you could go for installing the missing library (e.g. on Ubuntu 'sudo apt-get install libz-dev') or just compile the gem mapper without zlib support. Then, running:

./configure

Should detect that you don't have the library installed. If that doesn't work, you can always deactivate it on 'Makefile.mk' and set:

HAVE_ZLIB = 0

I hope this helps. Best,
