uncompress(): hello, hello!
gzread(): hello, hello!
gzgets() after gzseek: hello!
inflate(): hello, hello!
large_inflate(): OK
after inflateSync(): hello, hello!
inflate with dictionary: hello, hello!

Sorry, I can't answer general questions like this. Maybe try StackOverflow. I looks like zlib ins't installed since the compiler can't find it on any of the expected paths. Check to make sure you installed zlib.
