Comment 10 for bug 1172916

I tried to link libssl statically under Ubuntu 13.04. But it depends on libz and there are unresolved symbols when libssl.a or librypto.a are linked.

There are two options what libz to use- "system" and "bundled". In the case of "bundled" there are no unresolved symbols in "bundled" version:

But when system libz is used the following error take place:
