PEAR giving zlib problems

[Saeven]

Hello,

Trying to install a pear package and am getting the following:

root@darkstar:/devel# pear install Crypt_CBC-0[2].4.tgz
The extension 'zlib' couldn't be found.
Please make sure your version of PHP was builtwith 'zlib' support.

But I did compile --with-zlib, phpinfo shows the following:

ZLib Support enabled

Compiled Version 1.1.4

Linked Version 1.1.4

Directive Local Value Master Value
zlib.output_compression Off Off
zlib.output_compression_level -1 -1
zlib.output_handler no value no value

What could it be?

Cheers.
A.

try to add the configure option --with-zlib-dir=/usr/lib.
Change /usr/lib to the libz install directory. zlib.h
hope it helps.
