Could not find a package configuration file provided by "ZLIB"- BuildIt (hdf5) failed

[karthickmurugan]

Hi,
while installing SeaDAS 7.5.2, I got following error during buildit. Kindly direct me further.

CMake Warning at CMakeFilters.cmake:36 (find_package):
  Could not find a package configuration file provided by "ZLIB" with any of
  the following names:

    ZLIBConfig.cmake
    zlib-config.cmake

  Add the installation prefix of "ZLIB" to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH or set
  "ZLIB_DIR" to a directory containing one of the above files.  If "ZLIB"
  provides a separate development package or SDK, be sure it has been
  installed.

Unless you are modifying the code, or the binaries we distribute do not work on you system, you shouldn't need to build the code from source.
But if you want to do so, see the build instructions, specifically the "REQUIREMENTS" section :grin:
