openssh configure fails at the start of the emerge, claiming that zlib is too old, even though 1.2.2 > 1.2.1.2. Re-emerging zlib doesn't help, may be a problem in openssh. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge =net-misc/openssh-4.1_p1 2. 3. Actual Results: checking for zlib.h... yes checking for possibly buggy zlib... yes configure: error: *** zlib too old - check config.log *** Your reported zlib version has known security problems. It's possible your vendor has fixed these problems without changing the version number. If you are sure this is the case, you can disable the check by running "./configure --without-zlib-version-check". If you are in doubt, upgrade zlib to version 1.2.1.2 or greater.

Created attachment 60363 [details] output from openssh configure step This is the config.log the error message says should be included with the bug report.
Fails identically on 2004.3 and 2005.0 (I have two AMD64 Gentoo boxes on different releases).
looks like the zlib check doesnt take into the account we patched that version just upgrade your zlib to 1.2.2 and it should emerge fine
My zlib is ALREADY at 1.2.2. I have unmerge and reemerged zlib several times now to no effect. # epm -q zlib zlib-1.2.2
what does this show on your machine ? $ echo -e '#include <zlib.h>\nZLIB_VERSION' | gcc -E - | tail
Hmm, that shows 1.2.1 I don't understand, I've removed and reinstalled it and portage claims its 1.2.2? # echo -e '#include <zlib.h>\nZLIB_VERSION' | gcc -E - | tail extern int inflateBackInit_ (z_stream *strm, int windowBits, unsigned char *window, const char *version, int stream_size); # 1189 "/usr/local/include/zlib.h" 3 struct internal_state {int dummy;}; extern const char * zError (int err); extern int inflateSyncPoint (z_streamp z); extern const uLongf * get_crc_table (void); # 2 "<stdin>" 2 "1.2.1"
you have crap in /usr/local you should remove it
Thanks.
