Description Dirk Schoebel 2022-11-14 11:46:06 UTC

Target GDB enables zlib support if zlib is enabled for the target.
The dependency is set correctly too.
However, when configuring it only passes '--with-zlib' which enables the internally shipped zlib library and does not use the system one, which the dependency would imply. The correct (possibly additional) configure flag would be '--with-system-zlib' to use the one available on the system already.

Dirk, All,

Thanks for the report. We believe that has now been fixed with
commit 3341ceb1e585 (package/gdb: zlib is mandatory, not optional)
from Fabrice.

If the problem persists, please re-open.

Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.
