Re: NSS and NSPR compilation error: ssl3con.c:36:18: fatal error: zlib.h: No such file

If I build nss+nspr in my RedHat 7.2 x64, more arguments and packages are
required.

I see an error here, same as I had in Ubuntu 16.04 LTS but solved there by
installing

    zlib1g-dev

The message is:

    gcc -o Linux3.10_x86_64_cc_glibc_PTH_64_OPT.OBJ/zip.o -c -O2 -fPIC
-DLINUX2_1 -m64 -pipe -ffunction-sections -fdata-sections -DLINUX -Dlinux

zip.c:7:18: fatal error: zlib.h: No such file or directory
     #include "zlib.h"
                  ^
    compilation terminated.


Now in Redhat x64, to build successfully, I must install:

    sudo yum install zlib-devel

And with this line:

    gmake nss_build_all BUILD_OPT=1 USE_64=1 NSS_SSL_ENABLE_ZLIB=

Hope it helps somebody.
