If you're using mysqlclient you have to provide (un)compress. So then you
have to check where they are, either in libc (I think) or libz.

You could do something brute force like,

 (cd /usr/lib; for i in *.a; do nm $i |
        perl -ne 'print $1 if /^[0-9]+ t (\w+)$/i' > /tmp/$i.nm; done)

And then grep -l compress /tmp/*.nm to divine the location of various
functions.
