@Divyansh_tiwari I had the same issue, but on Python-3.8.3. I ran sudo apt-get install zlib1g-dev then sudo apt-get install zlibc. After installing those 2 packages, I reran make test and had test results = success. I hope this might work for you as well.

I had this issue too, but in Python-3.8.6. I did what @darryl Hall Jr suggested. But in my case, I just needed to ran 'sudo apt-get install zlib1g-dev', and then, I ran 'sudo make testall', and I got: 'Tests result: SUCCESS'!

Thank you

Since the original reporter didn't reply, we cannot investigate the issue and I close it. If you still have the issue, please reopen the issue with the full test output (attached as a file).
