I think the error message is quite helpful:

Zitiere Yuriy Taranovych <yuri@pointec.de>:

/usr/i386-linux/bin/ld: cannot find -lz

An error occurred while linking the DBD::mysql driver. The error message seems to indicate that you don't have a libz.a, libgz.a, libz.so or libgz.so. This is typically resolved by:

1.) You may try to remove the -lz or -lgz flag from the libs list by using the --libs switch for "perl Makefile.PL". 2.) On Red Hat Linux install libz-devel 3.) On other systems, please contact the mailing list

Msql@lists.mysql.com

I have no idea what the equivalent of "libz-devel" on OpenLinux is, but I would assume there is one.
