trying to run make command - as per the instructions. I'm installing Footprrints CRM software. My OS is Suse Enterprise Server 9.0.

heres the error:

LD_RUN_PATH="/usr/lib/mysql:/lib" /usr/local/footprints/footprints_perl/bin/perl myld cc  -shared -L/usr/local/lib dbdimp.o mysql.o  -o blib/arch/auto/DBD/mysql/mysql.so   -L/usr/lib/mysql -lmysqlclient -lz -lcrypt -lnsl -lm
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i586-suse-linux/3.3.3/../../../../i586-suse-linux/bin/ld: cannot find -lz
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status


An error occurred while linking the DBD::mysql driver. The error
message seems to indicate that you don't have a libz.a,
or a libz.so. This is typically resolved by:

1.) You may try to remove the -lz or -lgz flag from the libs list
    by using the --libs switch for "perl Makefile.PL".
2.) On Red Hat Linux install libz-devel
3.) On other systems, please contact the mailing list
