Folks - i have been trying to setup CGminer, but i keep getting the below error when i run make. I basically have 90+ machines with GPUs, that i want to automate deployment as much as possible. I have been doing ethereum perfectly well, today wanted to switch it all to BTC and see what happens. But i arrive at the below error. I have tried Ubuntu 18.04 & 16.04, both have the same issue. Any help here would be appreciated.
CC cgminer-logging.o
CC cgminer-klist.o
CC cgminer-noncedup.o
CCLD cgminer
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lz
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
Makefile:844: recipe for target 'cgminer' failed
make[1]: *** [cgminer] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory '/usr/src/cgminer'
Makefile:1813: recipe for target 'install-recursive' failed
make: *** [install-recursive] Error 1
Can anyone help figure out which package may be missing for this error to pop up? The OS is ubuntu 18.04 LTS. The packages i am installing with the script are:
sudo apt-get --assume-yes install software-properties-common build-essential autoconf automake libtool pkg-config libcurl4-openssl-dev libudev-dev libusb-1.0-0-dev libncurses5-dev
Any help here would be appreciated. Thanks!
