+Hello,
+
+I'm trying to install Altera's Quartus v11 on 64-bit Mageia 1, but the
+install fails very quickly with the following error stored in the
+install log:
+
+ImportError: /usr/lib/libxml2.so.2: symbol gzdirect, version
+ZLIB_1.2.2.3 not defined in file libz.so.1 with link time reference
+
+I think the problem is libxml2 because it's looking for a specific
+version of libz.so.1.  I found a couple of references a similar problem
+on the Internet, but the problem always seems to be libxml2 not
+supporting gzdirect.
+
+Also, I found a post in the Altera forums from a user of Mandriva having
+the same issue.  The Quartus install specifically states that it works
+with RedHat, Fedora and CentOS.
+
+There is an INSTALL.TXT file that lists some libraries that must be
+32-bit, but I seem to have all of them installed as 32-bit libraries.
+
+Has anyone gotten Quartus v11 working on Mageia?  I also need to get it
+working on a 32-bit machine.
+
+Do I need to compile libz and/or libxml2 from source?
+
+Thank you,
+
+Jeff
