THANK YOU SO MUCH. I had to do this to fix my nokogiri problem as well. You’re a legend!

Thank you. My recent attempt to compile Io did not like the libz I had. It complained about it not being x86_64. Your tip lead me to a 64 bit libz that mad it happy.

Thanks! This fixed my nokogiri problem too. I did those steps for libz.1.dylib + libz.1.2.3.dylib as well, like Jordan Brough did.

Thanks a lot! I was having a problem compiling nokogori native extensions, copying libz.1.dylib as you suggest solves the problem. I didn’t try Josh’s technique.

Why not just delete the bad copy of zlib? A fresh install of OS X has nothing in /usr/local.

Are you using MacPorts? You may need to migrate your old binaries. See the MacPorts migration docs:

And here’s a script that may ease the pain:

Note: I had to do the same for libz.1.dylib + libz.1.2.3.dylib to get the pg (postgres) gem to install.

Thank you, I was banging my head trying to get the mysql gem installed after upgrading to Snow Leopard as well and this works great.
