Description

Decaf library is using its own copy of zlib. It would be problem in case of zlib updates, plus some dependencies (openssl) are already dynamically linked with zlib library anyway.

Attached patch against current SVN. I don't know how to test the compression feature is working fine, but build and unit tests on Linux are OK.

Remaining issues:

• updating web page to add new dependency (zlib-devel)?
• Windows project not touched by the patch (and zlib source files could be removed)
