Any prev version supports building without system zlib dependency
But the latest version breaks that behavior
Is it made on purpose?
I'm maintaining fio GUI and I built precompiled portable fio binaries
for a range of OS and architectures. All the binaries, I built, are
compiled without system gzip dependency for portability.
I would like to have new versions of fio that can work without
unnecessary dependency such as system's zlib
How to reproduce on debian/ubuntu:
apt purge zlib1g-dev
./configure # reports zlib no
make # fails
t/dedupe.c:27:10: fatal error: zlib.h: No such file or directory
27 | #include "zlib.h"
