 TROUBLESHOOTING
 ---------------
 
+Undefined Symbol gzsetparams
+----------------------------
+
+If you get the error shown below when you run the Compress-Raw-Zlib test
+harness it probably means you are running a copy of zlib that is
+version 1.0.5 or older.
+
+t/01version.........Can't load 'blib/arch/auto/Compress/Zlib/Zlib.so' for 
+                    module Compress::Raw::Zlib: blib/arch/auto/Compress/Raw/Zlib/Zlib.so:
+                    undefined symbol: gzsetparams at ...
+
+There are two ways to fix this problem:
+
+    1. Upgrade to the latest version of zlib.
+
+    2. Edit config.in and set the OLD_ZLIB variable to True.
+
+Test Harness 01version fails
+----------------------------
+If the 01version test harness fails, and the problem isn't covered by the
+scenario above, it probably means that you have two versions of 
+zlib installed on your system.
+
+Run the command below to see if this is indeed the case
+
+    make test TEST_VERBOSE=1 TEST_FILES=t/01version.t 
+
+Try removing the one you don't want to use and rebuild.
