cyablo is right. It is a problem with the python libs provided by your linux distribution. But it is the first time that I see somebody having trouble with zlib. And there already are a lot of Ubuntu users running the addon without problems. Is there anything special with your python environment?
I seem to be having the same issues as And1.G with a natty x64 minimal install. Like mentioned above ubuntu doesn't ship python 2.7.1 with zlib enabled, so I tried to compile 2.7.2 with zlib enabled but after many attempts and trying many different possible options I just couldn't get rcb to work. If I run 'python' from the command prompt it shows I'm using 2.7.2 and when I compile the python modules in my xbmc source directory as per this post upon completion it says that zlib is available. Im using rcb 0.8.7 (from the addon manager)This so frustrating as my hardware works great with natty but my favourite addon doesnt!
I know this isn't a rcb issue but maybe some one can shed some light on this issue?
