The zlib doc advises that the most recent version should be used.

The link below indicates:
Current release:

zlib 1.2.1

Is it possible that the current release of zlib is included with Python
2.3? zlib.pyd has a modified time stamp 03-12-18 20:30

The Dependency Walker reports that zlib.pyd cannot find EFSADU.DLL
(using windows XP). None of the modules listed seem to match names in
the zlib 1.2.1 source.

If the current version is not installed, is it necessary to have a
compiler to produce zlib.pyd?

I am having a glitch with compression, in code using zipfile, and am not
yet sure whether the problem is in my code or the library.

PYTHON LIBRARY REFERENCE
7.15 zlib -- Compression compatible with gzip

For applications that require data compression, the functions in this
module allow compression and decompression, using the zlib library. The
zlib library has its own home page at http://www.gzip.org/zlib/. Version
1.1.3 is the most recent version as of September 2000; use a later
version if one is available.
