For people reading this: I was installing bzip2 by hand. Two things to bear in mind (1) it only installs a shared library if you use a special

The most complete way on an ELF system would be to link libbz2.so.1.0.6 to libbz2.so.1.0 libbz2.so.1.0 to libbz2.so.1 libbz2.so.1 to libbz2.so as done on Solaris, but I see Fedora has libbz2.so.1.0.6 to libbz2.so.1 libbz2.so.1 to libbz2.so and OS X has libbz2.1.0.5.dylib to libbz2.1.0.dylib libbz2.dylib to libbz2.1.0.dylib ! (It does have 1.0.6, so the first seems a back-compatibility link.)

I'll do some more investigation, but thought I would report this. It works for libz which I also had to install by hand.

I think Michael Rutter (who (re-)builds for 12.04 and other Ubuntu releases when I update the Debian package) can create a local backport of zlib. I somewhat recently started to (entirely locally) build some "backports" via https://launchpad.net/~edd/+archive/ubuntu/misc solely so that Travis can use them as binary. It's good option to have.
