Dev have you tried to compile the linux daemon for this shit?
The linux daemon compiles just fine.. that's what every pool uses.
Two missing files, one missing directory. Have you tried to compile it yourself?
Yes, clearly I have - I run a pool, and it is mining ZIP just fine.
The code from github compiled without any problems? Strange. What OS?
I have compiled it, but definitely had to do some monkey things..
I didn't see any missing files, or anything especially unusual with the compilation process. (Many coins require a few steps to successfully compile, like: mkdir obj, chmod'ing leveldb/build_detect_platform to have execute permissions, occasionally you'll need to remove *.o files and running make again, etc.)
