Z-Library recently opened a fundraising campaign to enhance their services and provide support to the project. It's currently 23 march and they still only on the 38%, that really sets me off because i'm sure there's a lot of people who actively use the library and will loose nothing i giving away a few dollars but still choose not to do it.

#Handbrake #Jansson #json #zlib

1. Submit a pull request to #zlib that changes the library filename on #Windows.
2. Pull request gets merged, and you effectively break everything that linked dynamically to zlib.
3. Attack everyone who reported this as a bug.
