      I tried also with the final release of Python 3.1, but when zlib is
      missing only test_zlib is skipped, test_zipfile, test_zipimport,
      test_gzip and test_distutils fail.
      These tests should check if zlib is available too.

      test_zipfile and test_zipimport should be enabled when zlib is not
      available: a zip file can store data uncompressed, and does not need
      zlib in this case.
      Only disable tests that require compression.

      I'm working on a patch.
      There a few more tests that need to be skipped in test_zipfile when zlib
      is not available. test_gzip has to be skipped entirely if zlib is not
      available. I still have to look at test_zipimport and test_distutils.

      Now (Python2.7a0 trunk:74029) there are 3 more tests that fail because
      zlib is not available: test_multiprocessing, test_xmlrpc and test_docxmlrpc.

      The 3 new failures (test_multiprocessing, test_xmplrpc and
      test_docxmlrpc) were introduced in r73638 and I opened a new issue about
      that (bpo-6499). I'll wait to see if and how they should be fixed (and
      possibly open a new issue for them).

      The attached patch fixes test_zipfile, test_zipimport, test_gzip and
      test_distutils.

      I used two techniques to fix these files:

      1. checking if zlib was available with
        try:
        import zlib
        except ImportError:
        zlib = None
        and then using @skipUnless(zlib, "requires zlib")
        to skip individual tests/classes
      2. using zlib = test_support.import_module('zlib') when
        zlib (or other modules like gzip) was necessary for
        all the tests

      The patch includes the following fixes:

      In test_zipfile there were 5 tests that were failing. Several other
      tests work without zlib too. Fixed adding 3 @skipUnless(zlib, "requires
      zlib") to two methods and to the TestsWithMultipleOpens class.

      In test_zipimport there are 3 test classes. The 3rd class tests various
      errors that are raised when, for example, the file doesn't exists. This
      class works without zlib too, but since it's pointless to run it if the
      other two don't work I decided to skip everything. Fixed adding zlib =
      test_support.import_module('zlib').

      In test_gzip all the files require gzip to work, and gzip requires zlib.
      Fixed adding gzip = test_support.import_module('gzip').

      In test_distutils there are several files affected:
      test_sdist: fixed with 4 @skipUnless(zlib, "requires zlib")
      test_bdist_dumb: fixed with a @skipUnless(zlib, "requires zlib")
      test_archive_util: fixed with 3 @skipUnless(zlib, "requires zlib")

      If the patch is good I'll commit it.

      Here's a new patch.

      I added a could of @skipUnless in test_sqlite because two tests were
      failing.
      I couldn't notice this before because I didn't have _sqlite3 and these
      tests were skipped. Thanks to R. David Murray for reporting the problem.

      In test_zipimport, the tests in 2/3 of the classes can be executed when
      zlib is missing (and not only 1/3 as I initially thought). Removed zlib
      = test_support.import_module('zlib') and added a @skipUnless(zlib,
      "requires zlib"). Thanks again to David for this.

      test_multiprocessing, test_xmplrpc and test_docxmlrpc were fixed in
      bpo-6499, so they are not part of this issue anymore.

      Great, I don't know how I missed that bug.

      It looks really similar to the patch I had written at
      http://codereview.appspot.com/111041

      So your patch looks correct to me, and does solve the issue locally.

      Thanks for the report, fixed in r82839 (py3k), r82840 (release27-maint), and r82841 (release31-maint).

      The attempt to install setuptools indicates that zlib may actually be required it seems.
I download setuptools-0.6c11-py2.7.egg from 
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/setuptools
and, as instructed at http://pypi.python.org/pypi/setuptools#id4
and run  `sh setuptools-0.6c11-py2.7.egg`
however get the following exception:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
zipimport.ZipImportError: can't decompress data; zlib not available
dlafarrell:/localhome/afarrell$ sh setuptools-0.6c11-py2.7.egg 
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
zipimport.ZipImportError: can't decompress data; zlib not available

      Given that this is an import error, I infer that
      this may just be a problem with the egg; no import may be needed.
      If thats the case then the egg should change to reflect that.

      No dice. unless I'm mistaken, this needs to be included in the distribution.

      My current best solution looks like finding the source to
      zlib, putting it in my path to install setuptools.
      then installing zlib properly

      traceback for your pleasure:

      Apologies. Error on my part.

      For those that run into the same problem:
      Though zlib is installed on an earlier version of python,
      you need to have (ob debian) the package zlib1g-dev installed
      when you build python.
