I'm attempting to install tensorflow 0.12.1 from the r0.12 branch from source.
zlib has been updated from 1.2.8 to 1.2.9 so it appears the link must be updated from: http://zlib.net/zlib-1.2.8.tar.gz
edit: per later comments, this has been moved to http://zlib.net/fossils/zlib-1.2.8.tar.gz
~~one solution may be to update to:~~ ~~http://zlib.net/zlib-1.2.9.tar.gz~~
here is the error I'm getting:
INFO: Starting clean (this may take a while). Consider using --expunge_async if the clean takes more than several minutes.

In addition to the breakage fix, perhaps it would also make sense to make a change that would prevent future breakage of this sort?For those wanderers with the same problem it can be fixed changing tensorflow/tensorflow/workspace.bzl from
