[gradsusr] problem while installing the libpng after zlib

[muhammad hasan ali baig]

Dear Huddleston and other grads users,
                        I tried to follow the steps as mentioned by you but
still the same error message occurred that 'zlib was not installed'. I am
very worried how to tackle with this  problem?
