[oe] building netdata: "No package 'zlib' found"

[Robert P. J. Day]

  i'm building a totally stock core-image-minimal for qemuppc with
latest poky checkout, and when i try to add the existing "netdata"
recipe to the mix, i get:

| configure: error: Package requirements (zlib) were not met:
|
| No package 'zlib' found
|
| Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
| installed software in a non-standard prefix.
|
| Alternatively, you may set the environment variables ZLIB_CFLAGS
| and ZLIB_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
| See the pkg-config man page for more details.

  apart from fixing this, how could this recipe ever have built
before? i realize the current recipe for netdata is almost a year old,
but should it still not build?
