           Summary: config throws an error due to missing zlib (but zlib
                    present)
           Product: Portable OpenSSH
           Version: 3.7.1p1
          Platform: ix86
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: Build system
        AssignedTo: openssh-bugs at mindrot.org
        ReportedBy: simone at piyosailing.com


I just follow the INSTALL instructions:
uncompress
./configure

but i receive this error:
checking for deflate in -lz... no
configure: error: *** zlib missing - please install first or check config.log 
***

but I've already an openssh server running on the machine (but installed from 
an RPM) and also I've the latest version of both openssl (openssl-0.9.6b-32.7) 
and zlib (zlib-1.1.4-8.7x).

So I cannot run the makefile and so install the new relase
