[collapsing wave]

Hi
trying to install cinelerra 4.3
installed zlib 1.2.5 when prompted then I get this message

configure: error:
*** OpenEXR requires a recent version of zlib, which you don't appear to
*** have.
***
*** This could be because the run-time linker is not finding zlib, or it
*** is finding the wrong version. In this case, you'll need to set your
*** LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable, or edit /etc/ld.so.conf to point
*** to the proper version. Also, make sure you have run ldconfig if
*** that is required on your system.

Giving up and going to a movie.

the easiest way i can give you as add its PPA to your repo list and then install it either from software center or synaptic . they will deal with remaining Job .
