[hsbt (Hiroshi SHIBATA)]

Issue #13653 has been updated by hsbt (Hiroshi SHIBATA).

Status changed from Assigned to Closed

After 4 years, We should remove the bundled source code like zlib, libyaml, libffi.

for mswin users: use vcpkg, other platforms: use the official package manager like apt, dnf.

Feature #13653: Bundled zlib helper
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/13653#change-96324

----------------------------------------
I created experimentally implementation for zlib-binding helper of bundled build.

 * https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/1638
 * https://patch-diff.githubusercontent.com/raw/ruby/ruby/pull/1638.patch

I also maintain ruby-build that is multi-platform build wrapper for ruby. I often got build failure
report caused to missing zlib headers. examples are here.

 * https://github.com/rbenv/ruby-build/issues/832
 * https://github.com/rbenv/ruby-build/issues/780

I hope to resolve this situation for ruby users.

my patch make to build zlib-binding with bundled zlib sources. It only enabled when It was given
`--enable-bundled-zlib` option with `configure` phase.

And for macOS: try to not mess up your system by installing random stuff in /usr/local, that's the source of many issues reported to `ruby-build`.
Using Homebrew is fine (or MacPorts), but manually installing stuff in /usr/local is asking for trouble.
