[Bug 1508239] [NEW] Python 3.5 on Wily has a broken (or missing) zlib

 

Public bug reported:

System installed version of Python has a defective zlib library:

Python 3.5 seems to be missing this module:

sal@gruntyman:~/workspace/ladygeek$ python3.5 
Python 3.5.0 (default, Sep 15 2015, 21:54:38) 
[GCC 4.9.2] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import zlib
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: No module named 'zlib'
>>>

but Python 2.7 seems to be fine

sal@gruntyman:~/workspace/ladygeek$ python
Python 2.7.10 (default, Oct 14 2015, 16:09:02) 
[GCC 5.2.1 20151010] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import zlib

and so does Python 3.4
