In case it is helpful, here is my configure line of Suse 10.0 for the sparse 
matrix libraries
compiled from source. Can you test if you have the rpm package of zlib-devel 
installed?

rpm -q zlib-devel

The configure script didn't find cheev either on my system. But it wasn't a 
"hard error" though.
