All these packages require OpenVMS V7.3 on AXP and OpenVMS V8.2 on IA64. Tom Uijldert has build kits for OpenVMS AXP V7.2 (for zlib, libz and Python). These kits can be found in Tom Uijldert's OpenVMS V7.2 kits . If you wish to compile the software yourself, complete source packages are available here or from the North American mirror site . Some of these tools require (or run better on) an ODS-5 volume. The integrated LDDRIVER present within OpenVMS Alpha V7.3-1 and later can be use to build an ODS-5 container. The necessary material to use it is include in the tools directory for each processor type. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Zlib V1.2.1 Zlib is a compression/decompression library used by several software packages, including MySQL and Python.
