Postgresql on 64bit Debian 4.0: libz.so.1 => not found

I need to get Postgresql installed on 64bit Debian 4.0.

Postgresql was installed as a part of the Trend IWSS web security suite, but Postgresql doesn't seemt to work on 64bit Debian 4.

What happens is:

# /usr/iwss/PostgreSQL/bin
/postgres
/usr/iwss/PostgreSQL/bin/postgres: error while loading shared libraries: libz.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

The libaries:

# ldd /usr/iwss/PostgreSQL/bin/postgres
        linux-gate.so.1 =>  (0xffffe000)
        libz.so.1 => not found
        libcrypt.so.1 => /lib32/libcrypt.so.1 (0xf7f68000)
        libresolv.so.2 => /lib32/libresolv.so.2 (0xf7f55000)
        libnsl.so.1 => /lib32/libnsl.so.1 (0xf7f3e000)
        libdl.so.2 => /lib32/libdl.so.2 (0xf7f3a000)
        libm.so.6 => /lib32/libm.so.6 (0xf7f16000)
        libc.so.6 => /lib32/libc.so.6 (0xf7deb000)
        /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0xf7f9c000)


The libz.so.1 DOES exists at /usr/lib/libz.so.1 but Postgresql apparently cannot use it.
How do I resolve this situation?
Any ideas?

Thanks

$ dlocate libz.so.1
zlib1g: /usr/lib/libz.so.1.2.3
zlib1g: /usr/lib/libz.so.1

/usr/lib/libz.so.1 is a symbolic link (to /usr/lib/libz.so.1.2.3 in my
case -- Ubuntu).  Does its target exist?  Try reinstalling zlib1g
(apt-get --reinstall install zlib1g).
