not on the level i'm looking at...
"zlib1g-dev needs either zlib1g 1.1.3 or 1.1.4 or 1.1.5, whereas what's
installed is 1.1.3 thru 1.1.9 ... so maybe zlib1g is 1.1.6 thru 1.1.9 in
which case it'd be outside the range needed by the APPARENTLY OUTDATED
1.1.3-1.1.5 -dev module."
that is, we have a newer binary (but instead of a version for the
installed binary we get a RANGE of versions displayed, some of which
WOULD meet the presented criteria) but an outdated library that doesn't
match. and no new library seems available. (how'd the new binary get
developed, by the way? without any libraries?)
to me that ain't very clear. nor explanable. please elucidate,
i need all the pointers i can get.

i'll keep trying with the hopes that you're right and that if you're
right, that someone updates the links soon. (or should i file a bug?
i wouldn't know what i'm talking about if so... can you tell? :)
