It doesn't specifically look for "libz.a", but -lz combined with -static
will make the linker search for it. If you have the zlib1g-dev package
installed, you should be able to compile AbiWord (I compiled it this
morning on my Debian/PowerPC laptop). Let me know if you have any problems,
I have my laptop with me today.
