* Fix configure's zlib version check R wants a version of zlib that is 1.2.5 or newer. The version checking code just does a lexicographic comparison of the first 5 characters of the string, so it seesthat the latest zlib version, 1.2.10, as 1.2.1 and fails. This patch changes the comparison to use zlibs' hex ZLIB_VERNUM so that it does not suffer from this problem. A version of this patch is wending it's way through the R comunity community and will/should be included in a future release. I tested the patch with the current R, 3.3.1. * Tighten zlib dependency version (>= 1.2.5) * Convert patch to level=1 format.
