I installed zlib package, with apt-get install, but
dont solve the problem.

I suspect you only installed the zlib runtime, if so you also need the zlib development package (probably "zlib1g-dev", depending on you version on Debian).

Similarly, you will also need the "libssl-dev" package for OpenSSL if you don't have it already.

Good judgement comes with experience. Unfortunately, the experience
usually comes from bad judgement.
