I'm trying to fix another problem with the installer on the NSLU2, but
I'm not able to build an installer image. I have zlib1g-dev
1:1.2.3.3.dfsg-7 installed on my build machine, but the build still
fails.

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  openssh-server-udeb: Depends: zlib1g (>= 1:1.2.3.3.dfsg-1) but it is
not installable
E: Broken packages
make[2]: *** [stamps/get_udebs-ixp4xx_netboot-stamp] Error 100
make[1]: *** [_build] Error 2
make: *** [build_ixp4xx_netboot] Error 2

$ dpkg -s zlib1g-dev
Package: zlib1g-dev
Status: install ok installed
Priority: optional
Section: libdevel
Installed-Size: 380
Maintainer: Mark Brown <broonie@debian.org>
Architecture: arm
Source: zlib
Version: 1:1.2.3.3.dfsg-7
Provides: libz-dev
Depends: zlib1g (= 1:1.2.3.3.dfsg-7), libc6-dev | libc-dev
Conflicts: zlib1-dev
Description: compression library - development
 zlib is a library implementing the deflate compression method found
 in gzip and PKZIP.  This package includes the development support
 files.

What exactly do you mean by upgrade zlib1g-dev on the buildd?

Thanks.

Gordon
