Compilation error: zlib.h: No such file or directory

[nanakiksc]

Seems that the compiler can't find the libz library in Ubuntu 18.04
I have the zlib1g-dev package (Ubuntu's zlib-dev) installed, so I should have zlib.h.

Is there a way for me to change the compiler flags to include/link that library?

Thanks!

The CMake file should properly look for libz and add it to the include path (currently it does nothing of the sort).
