Arggg... I am the typo master...

s/now/not.

So as Tres said maybe Ubuntu ships with a Python with zlib support,
but doesn't provide zlib headers.

Ok, so the python you build from the trunk checkout doesn't have zlib support.

I couldn't find an apt-get'able one, it looks like you have to build from source, but the lack of zlib support should be picked up before the unit tests fail.
