zlib
Python wrapper for the zlib compression library. Requires
http://www.winimage.com/zLibDll/zlib133dll.zip
and
ftp://ftp.uu.net/graphics/png/src/zlib133.zip
Unpack the former into dist\zlib113dll.
Uppack the latter into dist\zlib113.
NOTE: This procedure is new (& simpler, & safer) for 2.1a2.
Python wrapper for the zlib compression library. Get the source code
for version 1.1.3 from a convenient mirror at:
http://www.info-zip.org/pub/infozip/zlib/
Unpack into dist\zlib-1.1.3.
A custom pre-link step in the zlib project settings should manage to
build zlib-1.1.3\zlib.lib by magic before zlib.pyd (or zlib_d.pyd) is
linked in PCbuild\.
However, the zlib project is not smart enough to remove anything under
zlib-1.1.3\ when you do a clean, so if you want to rebuild zlib.lib
you need to clean up zlib-1.1.3\ by hand.
bsddb
Python wrapper for the BSD database 1.85. Requires db.1.85.win32.zip,
