zlib not available to packages

Open akbertram opened this issue 8 years ago • 1 comments

zlib is bundled with R and some packages like XVectors link against it.

We have two options here:

  1. Either compile the original zlibc source with GCC-Bridge
  2. Map the zlib API to Java's GZipInputStream/GZipOutputStream API

Neither of these sound particularly fun.

zlibbioc is actually building now because it relies on system library for unix machines.
