Hello,
Is there a way to uninstall this?

Be careful when running this script as installing a new version of zlib on top of a previous one can break library dependencies (it happened to me). Maybe it would be better to first check whether zlib is already available

HELP!! After running the script I get errors of installation. I delete the generated data and then reboot, then Ubuntu cannot longer initialise, does anybody knows how can I fix this problem? I can access to GRUB, but Ubuntu gets stucked and don't initialise.
