    Question error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1

    Hi,

    I'm trying to install libxml2 python module but I got these error:

    /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lz
    collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
    error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1

    What seems to be the problem?

    Thanks,

    /usr/bin/ld is a GNU linker. which links a program to library.

    Its confusing that what "-lz" is try searching lz on synaptic.
    look for a missing library. and install it.
    Never make any misteaks.
