import - error using paramiko module of Python -

ia m using python 2.7.6 , installed paramiko module. when import on cli, "zipimport.zipimporterror: can't decompress data;zlib not available".

i installed python-devel module looks getting installed python 2.6.6 - older version on same system.

when "sudo yum install python-devel", "package python-devel-2.6.6-51.el6.x86_64 installed , lates version. nothing do".

can please? how install python-devel 2.7.6 , import paramiko module without issues?

thanks!

i re-installed python using https://github.com/h2oai/h2o-2/wiki/installing-python-2.7-on-centos-6.3.-follow-this-sequence-exactly-for-centos-machine-only , worked fine. think existing version of python 2.6.6 , new version python 2.7.6 got mixed -- creating symbolic links python 2.7.6 , installation of "development tools" , other packages helped.
