Running configure on gnupg-2.0.26 produced a demand for pth which I downloaded and installed (pth-2.0.7). Then 'configure' zapped thro rapidly without any further errors noted at the end so I ran 'make' which failed - last few lines in the terminal are : > local/include -g -O2 -Wall -Wno-pointer-sign -Wpointer-arith -Wno-psabi -MT > compress.o -MD -MP -MF .deps/compress.Tpo -c -o compress.o compress.c > compress.c:34:18: fatal error: zlib.h: No such file or directory > #include <zlib.h> > ^ > compilation terminated. > make[2]: *** [compress.o] Error 1 > make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/src/gnupg-2.0.26/g10' > make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 > make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/src/gnupg-2.0.26' > make: *** [all] Error 2 from which it seems that failure to find a zlib.h was fatal. There seem to be 2 errors but I don't understand the second one. 'Configure' didn't point out the need for zlib.h but examination of its output indicates that it had noted its absence. I already have zlib (as I already had the other dependencies albeit at earlier versions except for libksba) but the ubuntu distribution seems to rename them and install in the /lib/ branch rather than the /usr/local/ branch. For example, I have the package zlib1g installed according to dpkg in /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/. So I suppose I now have to find a source for zlib or find how to tell gnupg where to find it ?
