Subject: [ruby-core:22087] Re: [Bug #1157] missing zlib.rb?

yeah 1.9 should probably complain more when there's no zlib or no
openssl, since it's basically a partial install.
If it's any help, there's been some work on a pure ruby zlib
http://djberg96.livejournal.com/161853.html
It might even be worth it to add it to core as a backup when no zlib
is installed.
Cheers!
